Mass is constant, but weight can change with location. Explain.

Physics

5 0
Mass is always constant. You are 50 kgs no matter how far above the surface of the earth you are, imagine standing on a high building you'll still be 50 kgs. But weigh depends on th gravitational acceleration at the point ie as you move up the surface of the earth the gravitational acceleration fluctuates and is not constant. But at school level it's 9.8 m.s-2

Why doping method is used to design a diode circuit​
Valentin [98]

Answer:

To increase the conductivity of the material.

Explanation:

Generally , the group 4 elements are non conductor but in certain conditions, such as doping or the increase in temperature, they becomes conductor.

The doping is the process of mixing of pentavalent or the trivalent material into tetra valent material in the very small amount, so that the material becomes conductor.

In making a diode we need two types of the materials, n type semiconductor and p type semi conductor.

When the trivalent impurity is added in the tetra valent element, the semiconductor becomes n type because an electron is left for the conduction.

When the pentavalent impurity is added in the tetra valent element, the semiconductor becomes p type because a hole is left for the conduction.

I need to explain how objects can have the same volume but different mass. Help??
kaheart [24]
No problem, and you already know all about it.

Here are a few examples of same volume / different weight:

-- A bottle full of water is heavier than the same bottle when it's full of air.
-- Stones are heavier than styrofoam chunks the same size.
-- A bowl of meat loaf is heavier than a bowl of scrambled eggs.

In each example, two things have the same volume, but one weighs more than
the other.  I didn't say anything about mass yet, but that's easy:  As long as you
keep everything on Earth, more weight means more mass.

So how come, in each example, things with the same volume have different mass ?
This was your original question.

The answer is just the simple fact that there are millions of different substances, and
each different substance packs a different amount of mass into the same volume.

The amount of mass that a substance packs into a standard volume is called
the <em>density</em> of the substance.  Meat loaf is more dense than scrambled eggs.
Stone is more dense than styrofoam.  Water is more dense than air.  And <em>gold</em>
is 19 times as dense as water.  If you have a jar that holds a pound of water, and
you pour out the water and fill the jar with gold, the same jar holds 19 pounds of gold,
because the density of gold is 19 times the density of water.

The reason you were assigned to think about this question for homework is that
next time your Physics class meets, you'll start talking about <em>Density. </em><em /> And you're
all ready for it now.
