How does weight change as the gravitational acceleration changes and why?

Physics
1 answer:
seraphim [82]3 years ago
4 0

Answer

The correct formula for weight is F = m*g where g is the gravitational acceleration.

All over the earth's surface, g is slightly different. The mass does not change no matter where you are. We should be measuring out weights in Newtons, not in kg. So the unit of weight in the metric system is 9.8 about * mass in kg.

Stop reading. This is your answer.

============

Notes

It was hard enough to get people to change over to kg never mind newtons. Canada, which is on the metric system, still gives the price of food in pounds. Or if not, in grams if the container is small enough.

Cashews cost 19$ Canadian per 906 grams which is roughly 2 pounds.

Oranges are $1.27 a pound and that is the way they are listed in Walmart.

10 pounds of potatoes are 4.95 dollars.

I'm sure you get the point. We use kg for certain things and retain pounds for others.

<span>The ability to navigate, hunt, and communicate by electric current in water most likely helps make up for the effect of vision. The answer to your question is VISION. 

</span>If fish live in a dark, murky water, that means that their sense of vision is affected. In dark, murky water they could not see anything. So, fish that lives in this kind of water developed the ability to <span>o navigate, hunt, and communicate by electric current in water. This ability is known as electroreception. Among fish, electroreception is present in some sharks and rays, and electric eels.</span><span>

I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.

Which of the following positions would Earth be in if it were winter in the Northern Hemisphere?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.

How can water boil without heat?​
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Put water at room temperature into a vacuum chamber and begin removing the air. Eventually, the boiling temperature will fall below the water temperature and boiling will begin without heating. Or if you want to be easy but messy, add dry ice to a bowl of water and watch how the water starts to boil.
