What is the relationship between mass and weight in physics?

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.

Why are the wheels on a roller coaster hot after a ride. (I know it’s due to friction but I need more of a detailed answer).

2 someone's glasses could fall of because of the inertia
roller coaster is in motion but your glasses are opposing and resisting that motion due to inertia....

1 there is a possibility that electrons move from wheels to the rail and vice versa which also means that it is producing some kind of electrical energy

Two 110 kg bumper cars are moving toward each other in opposite directions. Car A is moving at 8 m/s and Car Z at –10 m/s when t
Marysya12 [62]
From the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1+ m2u2= m1v1+ m2v2
110*8+ 110*-10= 110*-10 + 110* v2
v2= 8 m/sec

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Hydraulic press is called an instrument for multiplication of force. Why? Because it uses Pascal's idea and  principle: F=p*S. If we apply small force to small piston you will generate a pressure. According to Pascal's law pressure is the same everywhere in closed system so the same pressure will act on large piston on the other side too.

Which statement is true about gravitational forces?
Readme [11.4K]
Hey there!

Your correct answer would be (<span>Every mass exerts a gravitational force on every other mass.) It really doesn't matter the size in mass what so ever, gravity is stronger than mass, mass in nothing compared to mass. Therefor, gravity exert's mass on any object with any size of mass.

Your correct answer would be . . . 

</span>\boxed{\boxed{Every \ mass \ exerts \ a \ gravitational \ force \ on \ every \ other \ mass}}
<span>
Hope this helps.
