What is the difference between mass and weight?

Physics
1 answer:
xxTIMURxx [149]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C.  Mass is independent of the force acting on the mass.

Weight depends on the gravitational force acting on the mass.

Example:  A mass of 1 kg on the earth still has a mass of 1 kg on the moon;

whereas the weight of that mass on earth is 9.8 N and only 1/6 of that amount on the moon.

A snowboarder is sliding back and forth on a half pipe at one point she leaves the top of the half pipe and slides to the other
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

he kinetic energy increases on the descent, being maximum at the lowest point of the trajectory.

Explanation:

In these semicircular sections the skaters slide from one side to the other, in the downward path their kinetic energy increases and their potential energy decreases; When it leaves the ramp and is in the air, the kinetic energy decreases rapidly, up to the point of maximum height where the kinetic energy is zero.

Consequently, the kinetic energy increases on the descent, being maximum at the lowest point of the trajectory.

A ___ is a large ball of gas that generates its own energy. This energy is created by the fusion of ___ atoms to make ___.
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Star, hydrogen and energy

Explanation:

A star is a large ball of gas that generates its own energy by fusing hydrogen atoms to make helium. It is held together by its own gravity. This process emits a tremendous amount of energy, and some of the energy is in the form of light.

The energy released from the collapse of the gas into a protostar causes the center of the protostar to become extremely hot. When the core is hot enough, nuclear fusion commences. Fusion is the process where two hydrogen atoms combine to form a helium atom, releasing energy.

While at soccer practice, Korey ran around the track at 10 meters per second. He had a constant speed and did not change directi
Mariana [72]

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

A body with a constant speed always has a zero acceleration

Hence if Korey ran around the track at 10 meters per second and had a constant speed and did not change directions, then his acceleration will be 0m/s² not considering his initial speed
