How do you find the weight of an object when given the mass and acceleration?

Physics
1 answer:
murzikaleks [220]1 year ago
3 0

Weight of an object is given by the formula W = m x g , where

m : mass of the object

g : gravitational acceleration

It is <u>independent of the horizontal </u><u>acceleration</u>.  

<h3>What do we mean by weight of an object?</h3>

Weight is a gauge of how strongly gravity is<u> pulling something down.</u> It is dependent on the object's mass, or how much matter it consists of. It also depends on the <u>object's uniformly distributed</u> downward acceleration caused by gravity.

This equation can be used to express weight:

 W = m x g

<h3>What is the difference between weight and mass of an object?</h3>

In everyday speech, the phrases "mass" and "weight" are frequently used interchangeably; nevertheless, the two concepts don't have the same meaning. In contrast to weight, which is a <u>measurement of</u> how the <u>force</u> of gravity works upon a mass, mass is the <u>amount of substance</u> in a material.
