Mass is based on the number of molecules contained in an object and is constant. Weight is the gravitational force acting on a mass and it depends on the local gravitational pull; e.g. object weighs less on Moon than on Earth.

If earth did not rotate how would air at the equator move?

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:The frequency of the echo is slightly decreased

Explanation:

Given

speed of boat $=30\ mph$

cliff is $3000\ m$ away

when boat is still , suppose t is the time taken by the echo to reach observer on the boat

But as soon as boat starts moving the distance between cliff and boat decreasing and time for echo to reach observer also decreases

and we know $time \propto \frac{1}{frequency}$

therefore frequency of the echo slightly decreased.
