Is the weight of a body constant at all places on the earth?
The weight of a person is not constant at all places on the Earth. The weight becomes zero at the center of the earth or far away from the Earth.
Person sitting in an artificial satellite of the earth have?
A person in an artificial satellite around Earth would experience weightlessness due to the constant freefall towards Earth. They would also see the Earth rotating beneath them, experiencing multiple sunrises and sunsets in a single day. Additionally, they would be shielded from Earth's atmosphere and be able to see the curvature of the planet.
What would happen if the earth did not have the force of gravity?
If the force of gravity of Earth were to drop to zero, to put it in simple terms: Firstly, the whole atmosphere would leave Earth. Meaning all living things would most probably die as many of us can't live without air. Secondly, the moon would most probably float off to space. Without Earth's gravity, it is highly possibly we would never see the moon again. Either that, or the moon's gravity on its own could hold and it would merely be further away from Earth than usual. Thirdly, those not clutching onto something would definitely float off to space as well. People who wants to be lighter would be happier however, as without gravity, everyone's weight is reduced to zero kg, zero grams, zero pounds, etc.
Do objects become lighter as they get closer to the center of the earth?
Objects masses would not change, but the pull of gravity on an object from another object when the first is inside the other is effectively zero when the inside is at the center of mass of the outer. If the Earth were a thick walled but hollow sphere, objects would stick (weakly) to the inside surface as well as the outer.
Why is acceleration due to gravity zero at the centre of the Earth?
Acceleration due to the earth's gravity is zero at the center of the Earth because at that point the mass of the earth is equally distributed in all directions, so pulling equally in all directions for a net zero pull. Simplistically, acceleration due to gravity decreases as distance from the center decreases. At the center the distance is zero, hence gravity is zero.
Where on the earth would the weight of body be zero why?
on the centre of the earth.
What is weight of the body at the center of the earth?
Zero
What will happen to mass and weight of a body on earth if suddenly gravitational attraction of the earth disappeared?
Your mass would be unaffected, it is simply to do with the atoms in your body. Your weight would be reduced to zero as that is simply how much your body is affected by gravity.
What is the body weight in centre of the earth?
The body weight at the center of the Earth would be zero because the mass surrounding you in all directions would create a gravitational pull in every direction, effectively cancelling out any perceived weight.
Is the weight of a body constant at all places on the earth?
The weight of a person is not constant at all places on the Earth. The weight becomes zero at the center of the earth or far away from the Earth.
What would be the weight in kilograms of a 50 kg body?
The weight of a body depends upon the force of gravity acting upon that body. A 50 kg body will have a weight that is 50 times that of a 1 kg mass. The weight of the body will be different on earth, on the moon and in deep space (zero).
What happens to the mass of a body when it is at the center of the earth?
Assuming that you could get the mass there and intact, the mass of the body would not change. Its weight, however would be zero. Depending on the matter used, the volume might be considerably reduced due to pressure.
Is it possible that a body may have non zero mass but zero weight?
Yes, it is possible for a body to have non-zero mass but zero weight when in free-fall or in a microgravity environment where there is no gravitational force acting on the body. Weight is the force due to gravity acting on an object, and so in the absence of gravity, the body would have zero weight but still have mass.
Weight of the body at the center of the earth?
Here's a nice general rule to ponder: At the center of mass of any planet ... whichis the center of the planet if its mass is distributed uniformly and symmetrically ...the weight of any object due to gravitational attraction is zero.
Can weight be zero physics?
In classical physics, weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. If an object has zero mass, it would not experience weight as weight is proportional to mass. So, for a body to have zero weight, it would need to have zero mass.
Can a body have zero mass and zero weight?
no
What would your mass be in space if you weighed 48kg?
Your mass would be 48kg both on Earth and in space as mass remains constant regardless of location. Weight, on the other hand, would vary depending on the gravitational pull of the celestial body you are on.
