an object is like 3 to four pounds it dipends on what the object is

Its the force generated by gravity that attracts the earth and the object together.
Normally its measured in kilograms (force)
1 kgf = 9.80665 newtons (force)

∙ 14y agoIt's the pull of gravity on an object. The more it weighs, the bigger the pull of gravity. Not to get confused with mass.
It is determined by the multiplying the volume of a sample (Length times width times height) by the density coefficient.

∙ 13y agoThe force of gravity is what gives objects weight. If you weigh yourself on Earth and then on the moon, you would weigh less on the moon right? This is because the moon has a smaller gravitational pull.

On earth the weight an height of an object give an object what type of potential energy?
Gravitational energy
Is the weight of an object the frictional force on the object?
No the weight of an object has nothing to do with friction. Weight is the gravitational attraction of the object and the planet.
The weight of an object is the force of?
The weight of an object is the force of gravity.
When an object floats the buoyant force is what the weight of the object?
If the object is floating, then the buoyant force is equal to the object's weight.
What is the weight of a 10-kg object on the Moon compared to its weight on Earth?
The weight of any object on the Moon is about 1/6 of the weight of the same object on the Earth.
On earth the weight an height of an object give an object what type of potential energy?
Gravitational energy
Give an object with total weight of 4 pounds?
Big bottles of ketchup
How is the gravitational force related to the weight of an object?
Very closely! "Weight" is the name we give to gravitational forcein certain circumstances.
Give you an example of a math problem involving density?
Example: The density of an object is 100 grams/cm3. The weight of an object is 50 grams. What is the volume of the object?
Is the weight of an object the frictional force on the object?
No the weight of an object has nothing to do with friction. Weight is the gravitational attraction of the object and the planet.
The weight of an object is the force of?
The weight of an object is the force of gravity.
If the apparent weight of an object can be found by subtracting the buoyant force from the weight of the object what is the apparent weight of the floating object?
Zero.
Why might scientists measure the weight of an object rather than the weight of an object?
The mass of an object does not change , but its weight can vary.
When an object floats the buoyant force is the weight of the object?
If the object is floating, then the buoyant force is equal to the object's weight.
When an object floats the buoyant force is what the weight of the object?
If the object is floating, then the buoyant force is equal to the object's weight.
What is the weight of a 10-kg object on the Moon compared to its weight on Earth?
The weight of any object on the Moon is about 1/6 of the weight of the same object on the Earth.
What happens when the water around objects have a force greater than the object's weight?
The water around floating object's is a measure of that object's "Displacement". For the object to float the weight of displacement must equal the object's weight. If the water around an object is of a greater weight than an object's displacement, then the object will sink.
