weight = mass x gravity

Front

What is the formula for calculating weight?

Back

Weight = Mass x Gravity

Front

Why does a person weigh less on the Moon than on Earth?

Back

Because the Moon has less mass and therefore less gravity.

Front

What is the definition of weight?

Back

Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object.

Front

What is the SI unit of weight?

Back

Newtons (N)

Front

What is the SI unit of mass?

Back

Kilogram (kg)

Front

How does mass affect gravitational force?

Back

As mass increases, gravitational force increases.

Front

What is gravity?

Back

Gravity is the force that attracts two bodies towards each other.

Front

What happens to weight if gravity decreases?

Back

Weight decreases.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and weight?

Back

Weight is directly proportional to mass when gravity is constant.

Front

What is the gravitational acceleration on Earth?

Back

Approximately 9.81 m/s².
