What else can I help you with?
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.
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.
Near the Earth's surface the amount of mass an object has does not affect its acceleration due to gravity?
That is correct. Earth's gravity, often expressed as 9.8 meters per second square, can also be expressed as the equivalent 9.8 Newton per meter. That is, an object of twice the mass will feel twice the force of attraction from Earth. However, it will also have twice the inertia - it requires twice the force to give it a certain acceleration.
If an object is placed at a distance greater than twice the focal length of a convex lens what type of an image will be produced?
If an object is placed at a distance greater than twice the focal length of a convex lens, a real and inverted image will be produced. The image will also be smaller than the object.

How are gravitational mass and inertial mass alike?
The idea here is that if - for example - one object has twice the inertia than another (i.e., twice the "inertial mass"), its reaction to gravity (its "gravitational mass") will also be twice as much. Thus, the gravitational mass and the inertial mass are directly proportional to one another, and you can just as well choose the proportionality constant to be one, making them equal.

What is another word for Newton's first law?
Newton's First Law states that an object that is moving has the tendency to continue moving at the same speed; if it is at rest, the tendency is for the object to remain at rest. This law is also known as the law of inertia.

What name is given to the property by which objects resist changes in motion?
Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. This is, in essence, the statement of Newton's first law. The concept of inertial is quantified by mass. We say an object with twice the mass has twice the inertia. See also the related question link.
What is first low of motion?
The first law of motion, also known as Newton's first law of motion, states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. This law illustrates the concept of inertia, which describes an object's tendency to resist changes in its motion.
What does an object have to have for weight to act on it?
An object must have mass for there to be weight. There also must be another mass (such as Earth) that exerts a gravitational pull on the object for there to be weight.
Can you marry your first cousin twice removed?
Whether you can marry your first cousin twice removed depends in part on the laws of the place where you propose to have the marriage performed. In most of the US, you can marry your first cousin, so marrying your first cousin twice removed would also be permitted.
Another name for first law of motion?
The first law of motion is also known as Newton's law of inertia. It states that an object at rest will remain at rest, and an object in motion will remain in motion with a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
