We are aware that weight is the product of applied gravitational force and mass. W = MG thus, where W represents the weight, M the mass, and G the gravitational force. As a result, it might also mean that "an object's weight is directly proportionate to its mass."

<h3>What is mass?</h3>
  • Mass is a physical body's total amount of matter.
  • It also serves as a gauge for the body's inertia, or resistance to acceleration (change in velocity) in the presence of a net force.
  • The strength of an object's gravitational pull to other bodies is also influenced by its mass.
  • The kilogram is the primary mass unit in the SI (kg).
  • Even though weight is frequently measured using a spring scale rather than a balancing scale and directly compared with known masses, mass is not the same as weight in physics.
<h3>What is weight?</h3>
  • The force exerted on an object by gravity is known as the weight of the object in science and engineering.
  • Weight is sometimes described as a vector quantity, or the gravitational force exerted on the object, in some common textbooks.
  • Others define weight as a scalar quantity, the gravitational force's strength.
  • Others define it as the strength of the force applied to a body as a result of systems designed to resist the effects of gravity; the weight is the amount that is determined, for instance, by a spring scale.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

We have to add two vectors.

Vector #1: 0.15 m/s north

Vector #2: 1.50 m/s east

Their sum:

Magnitude: √(0.15² + 1.50²)

Magnitude = √(0.0225+2.25)

Magnitude = √2.2725

Magnitude = <em>1.5075 m/s</em>

Direction = arctan(0.15/1.50) north of east

Direction = <em>5.71° north of east</em>
