What is the weight of newtons of a 7.0kg package?
On earth it is 68.6 newtons.
Between mass and weight the more fundamental quantity is?
Mass. Weight is different depending on gravity, but mass is always the same. On the Moon an astronaut weighs less, but has the same mass that they have on Earth.
How much will astronaut weigh in outer space?
A pound is a unit of mass. Mass is constant throughout the cosmos, so if the astronaut has a MASS of 180 pounds on Earth, it will be the same even in space. But, the astronaut doesn't have a weight of 180 pounds. His MASS is 180 pounds. Weight = mass x gravity. So, in space, his weight is 0 Newtons.
What is the weight of 1-kg of a brick?
On Earth, it's 2.205 pounds. (rounded) In other places, its weight is different.
What is the weight in newtons of a 7.9 kg package of nails?
Multiply the mass (in kilograms) by the gravity (on Earth, this is about 9.8 meters/second2)
What happens to the mass of an astronaut when he is on the moon?
Nothing, but his weight is 1/6 of his weight on Earth.
An astronaut has a mass of 70 kg. What is the weight of the astronaut on Earth at sea level?
About 700N 70kg • 10m/s = 700N
Would the weight of an astronaut's tool belt be heavier on earth or mars?
earth, because earth has a greater gravitational pull
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 is the mass of an astronaut on earth?
In everyday usage, mass is often interchangeably with "weight". Every astronaut is different, just like everybody else.
An astronaut on the moon has the same mass as she did on earth but has less?
mass doesnt change but weight does
Would your weight increase on the moon?
No. As long as you continued to eat your astronaut food and do your astronaut exercises, your weight would remain constant on the moon. But it would only be about 16% of your weight on Earth. Your mass would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth, and would also not change while you're there.
What is the weight of newtons of a 7.0kg package?
On earth it is 68.6 newtons.
What is the weight of a 90 -kg astronaut on Earth?
On Earth, 90 kg of mass weighs 882 newtons (198.4 pounds).
Why would an astronaut weigh less on the moon than earth?
The moon is considerably smaller than the Earth, both in diameter and in mass, and it therefore has a much weaker gravitational field. The weight of an astronaut on the moon is the result of the mass of the astronaut, which is not changed by going to the moon, and the gravitation field of the moon. A weaker gravitational field produces a lower weight.
What has changed to cause the weight of the astronaut to be different?
weight= mass*gravity in this case, an astronauts mass has stayed the same, but the gravitational force acting upon him has decreased, decreasing his weight. gravity decreses because the astronaut is further from the centre of gravitational attraction (the earth)
Why astronaut can see earth from the sun?
the sun reflects the light to the astronaut eyes so the astronaut can see the Earth .
