As per Law of Gravitation, there is no gravitational force on a massless object, so it
will not accelerate.
But mass-less object does not exist. It should have some mass and all objects fall down on
earth with same acceleration irrespective of their mass(if air resistance is neglected).
What else can I help you with?
What is the buoyant force on a massless object?
The buoyant force on a massless object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. This is because the buoyant force depends on the volume of fluid displaced, not the mass of the object.
What would fall faster on the moon a object with more mass or an object with less mass?
In the absence of air resistance, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass, as demonstrated by Galileo's experiment on Earth. Therefore, on the moon, an object with more mass would not fall faster than an object with less mass.
How long will it take an object to fall 60000 feet?
It would take approximately 50 seconds for an object to fall 60,000 feet in a vacuum without air resistance. However, in reality, factors like air resistance would affect the actual time it takes for the object to fall.
What is the movement of an object toward earth solely because of gravity?
The movement of an object toward the Earth solely because of gravity is called free fall. In free fall, the object is only under the influence of gravity and experiencing no other forces that would slow it down.
The only force acting on a falling object is gravity the object is said to be?
The object is said to be in free fall.
What is the buoyant force on a massless object?
The buoyant force on a massless object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. This is because the buoyant force depends on the volume of fluid displaced, not the mass of the object.
What causes an object to fall from a height?
Gravity causes an object to fall from a height. Without gravity, the object would just be floating in the air.
How can an object in space warp space and time if it is essentially weightless and would not therefore create any gravitational influence on it?
Weightless is not the same as massless -- it is an object's mass that warps space (and time) around it, creating a gravitational field.
Why don't objects fall to earth at the same velocity?
Air resistance of an object can slow its fall. If every object had the same resistance, everything would fall at the same speed.
What would fall faster on the moon a object with more mass or an object with less mass?
In the absence of air resistance, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass, as demonstrated by Galileo's experiment on Earth. Therefore, on the moon, an object with more mass would not fall faster than an object with less mass.
How long will it take an object to fall 60000 feet?
It would take approximately 50 seconds for an object to fall 60,000 feet in a vacuum without air resistance. However, in reality, factors like air resistance would affect the actual time it takes for the object to fall.
When light falls on an object which side do shadows fall?
The shadow will fall on the opposite side that the light hit the object. Assuming that the object is a solid object that you cannot see through, there would be no light on the other side, hence causing the shadow.
What is the movement of an object toward earth solely because of gravity?
The movement of an object toward the Earth solely because of gravity is called free fall. In free fall, the object is only under the influence of gravity and experiencing no other forces that would slow it down.
Does gravity act on an object in the air?
Yes, it does. If it didn't, nothing would ever fall.
What is first rank tensor and why and how any massless spin-2 field would be indistinguishable from gravitation?
A first rank tensor is called a vector. A massless spin-2 field would be indistinguishable from, or it would describe gravity, if its equations of motions are the Einstein field equations.
What happens if a large object and small object fall into free fall and what is their acceleration?
In a vacuum, i.e. space, both objects would accelerate at the same rate. If the object they were attracted to was the same size as our planet the acceleration would be 9.81 m/s squared. In an atmosphere the acceleration would be inconsistent and based on air resistance.
How can a particle of matter be massless if the definition of matter is Anything that has mass and takes up space?
By definition a massless particle has no rest mass therefore it can not take up any spacial volume. I think the confusion lies with calling something that is massless, a particle. This is because as soon as we hear particle we think "object" and objects have definite mass and volume. A photon is massless and sometimes people may refer to it as a particle of light. But in fact that is sort of a misnomer being that it really isn't a particle, though it has particle-like properties. If something is massless theorists have said that the object does not interact with the Higgs field, though gravitational effects are still felt by the photon, example: gravitational lensing.
