Yes, weight is directly proportional to mass, on earth weight = mass X 9.8 or sometimes it is simplified to 10, the unit for weight is newtons (N)

Does mass and weight are proportional to one another?

When there is twice the mass how much weight is there?

If the object doesn't move to another planet while you double its mass,its weight will also double.


What happens to weight as mass is increased?

As the mass increases, the weight also increases correspondingly as the weight is directly proportional to the mass


An objects weight is directly related to its?

mass. Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity, and it is directly proportional to an object's mass. This means that the weight of an object increases as its mass increases.


If the weight of an object of mass m is mg then the weight of an object of mass 2m is?

The weight of an object of mass 2m is 2mg. Weight is directly proportional to mass, so if you double the mass, you double the weight.


Are force and mass directly proportional or inversely proportional?

Force is directly proportional to mass provided the acceleration is constant.


Why does an object with twice the mass of another weigh twice as much?

In the same gravity, downward force (weight) is directly proportional to the mass. (F=mA) If you had two objects of equal mass, and combined them, the weight would be the same as the total of the two.


The greater the mass the greater the weight?

Yes, weight is directly proportional to mass. As an object's mass increases, its weight will also increase proportionally due to the force of gravity acting on it.


Why is weight directly proportinal to mass?

Weight is directly proportional to mass because weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. The greater the mass of an object, the greater the force of gravity acting on it, which results in a greater weight. Mathematically, weight (W) is calculated by multiplying mass (m) by the acceleration due to gravity (g), W = m * g.


How do you determine a person's mass?

You weigh an object to determine its mass. Weight is directly proportional to mass, and in fact most balances are calibrated in mass units such as kilograms.


What relationship does mass weight and gravity have?

Mass and weight are related through gravity. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that object. Weight is directly proportional to mass and the acceleration due to gravity.


When acceleration is held constant and objects of different mass are observed are mass and force directly proportional or inversely proportional?

directly proportional because force=(mass)(acceleration) (f=ma)
