Why your weight would change if you went to the moon but your mass would not?
Your weight would change on the moon because gravity is weaker there compared to Earth, so you would feel lighter. However, your mass would remain the same because it is a measure of the amount of matter in your body, which does not change.
What is your weight on earth if your weight on the moon is 36kg?
There is gravity on the moon! The gravity on the Moon is 1/6th that of what is observed on Earth. An object with a weight of 36 kg on Earth would weigh 1/6th that on the Moon. 1/6th of 36kg is, 6 kg. An object with a MASS of 36 kg on Earth would have the same 36 kg MASS on the moon. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, whereas WEIGHT is the measurement of the force of gravity on that MASS. This is why your weight will change when visiting other planets, but your mass stays constant plant to planet!
Why is gravity's force on a mountain is greater then its force pulling on us?
A mountain has far more mass than a human being. Objects with greater mass have a naturally higher level of gravity themselves, and thus have a greater attraction to the earth itself, working with its gravity. Keep in mind that while you would calculate more force between the earth and the mountain, if you and Mt. Everest could be suspended above the earth in a vacuum and released, you would both fall to the earth at the same velocity. The greater mass of the mountain is off-set by a proportionally greater inertia. Don't get fooled as Aristotle did, and assume that the mountain would fall faster than you (in a vacuum).
What would it mean if the change in mass is negative?
A negative change in mass means that the object has lost mass. It could be due to factors such as evaporation, chemical reactions, or loss of particles.
If you tripled the volume of your sample of chalkwhat would happen to the mass?
The mass of the chalk would stay the same because volume and mass are independent properties. Triple the volume does not mean that mass will change.
Would adding an electron to hydrogen change its mass?
no, it would change its charge not its mass.
Would your mass change if you went on a plane?
Your mass would not change if you went on a plane.
Does your mass decrease if you move up a mountain side where the value of g decreases?
Yes, your mass does not change, but your weight will decrease as you move up a mountain side where the value of gravity (g) decreases.
Is earth gravity weaker on a top of a mountain?
Earth's gravity will not change normally on the ground, however yes, you will experience a decreased pull at your height, and you weight will also decrease. If you were to go higher, you would feel the gravity even less!
Would your mass change on an airplane mountain top or the beach?
Your mass would remain the same in all of these locations. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and is constant regardless of the location. However, your weight may vary due to differences in gravitational force in these locations.
Why would your weight would change if you went to the moon but your mass would not?
* Mass doesn't change because of conservation of mass. * Weight changes because it is the product of mass x gravity - and gravity on the Moon is less.
Does mass and weight change with altitude or elevation?
Mass does not change with changes in altitude or elevation. Weight on the other hand does change. However, on earth the change from sea level to the top of a mountain would be extremely small.
Would your mass change on a planet?
no
How did archimedis find the solution to kings question that the given material is gold or not?
Archimedis was so deep into thought that he filled up his bathtub full before he climbed in. When he climbed into the bathtub, the water spilled out of it and on the bathroom floor. He then realized that his mass caused the water to spill and if he collected the water and measured its mass it would be the same as his mass. He ran out of his house without wearing anything saying EUREKA!
Is the mass of an object different if it is measured in us units and metric units?
The mass would not change, only the numbers describing the amount of mass would change.
What is the formula for the change of temperature of an air mass as it passes Over a mountain and as it moves into a Leeward Valley?
The answer is 7
Does your mass change if you were to travel to the moon?
Your mass will not change, but your weight will.
