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 is water buoyancY?
The difference between an object's weight, and the weight of water with the same volume as the object.
What describes the notion that an object floats if the buoyant force on the object is equal to the objects weight?
Bouyancy is defined as the force on a object submerged in a fluid equal to the difference in weight of the object and the fluid displaced. If the total weight of the object is the same as the same volume of the fluid, the bouyant force is zero, and the object will stay in the same place.
If a hidden object has the same properties as the airplane what can you tell about the hidden object?
the hidden object weight the same as the airplane
Measure of the force of gravity acting on an object is what?
The force of gravity between the Earth and an object on its surface is what we call the object's "weight". What is not generally appreciated is that the object attracts the Earth toward it with the same force. This means that whatever your weight is on Earth, it's the same as the Earth's weight on you.
What both objects are made of the same material but the heavier object floats but the lighter object sinks?
If the object sinks or floats depends on mass or weight. The object can be made of the same material, but if the weight is not the same (say if it is heavery than water) it will sink.
What is the gravitational weight difference between the moon and earth?
The weight of an object on the moon's surface is 16.3% of the same object's weight on the earth's surface.
Does an object on earth have the same mass as it does on earth?
Yes. The mass of an object is always the same, but the weight of an object depends on the force of gravity on it.
What is the same mass and weight?
The mass of an object doesn't change, no matter where the object goes. The object's weight changes, depending on what other masses are nearby.
What is the relationship between the effort and the weight of an object being lifted over a simple pulley?
the effort needed to lift an object is about the same as the weight of an object:)
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the object weight is different?
The reason is because the mass is like the volume and the weight is like how heavy an object is.
Does water affect the weight of an object the same thing as does submerging something in water affect the weight of an object?
Yes, when the object is submerged in water then water exerts opposite buoyonci force which decrease the weight of object.
