The equation for the force of gravity is F = mg. The major result of this force is that all objects fall at the same rate, regardless of their mass. Gravity on the Moon and on other planets have different values of the acceleration due to gravity, ... Note: There is often confusion concerning the designation of weight and mass.

Weight is simply the measure of the amount of an ordinary ... Actually, there is no such thing as Gravitational Mass, other then when it is used to describe weight that is created by Gravity and a Secondary Force.

Consider a block of mass resting on the floor of an elevator, as shown in Fig. 25. Suppose that the elevator is accelerating upwards with acceleration . How does this acceleration affect the weight of the block? ... Of course, the block experiences a downward force due to gravity. Let be the weight of the block:

One of the important formulas in Newton's model is his law for calculating the force of gravity between two objects 1 and 2 with mass m1 and m2, which are separated by a distance R:

A demonstration of how air resistance can affect how fast a piece of paper and a ball fall to the groun ... This is because of weight, the force of gravity on an object at the surface of the planet. Some people confuse weight and mass, they are different. Mass is how much matter is in an object, and weight is the force...

We were discussing mass vs weigh relating weight to gravitys pull on mass. No problem so far:-) The question Humm, my first reaction was that distance from the pull of gravity would affect weight ( the standard Mt. Everest vs Death Valley example )This would be the same weather on the top of the earth or at the equator.

The weight of an object is the force of gravity on the object and may be defined as the mass times the acceleration of gravity, w = mg. Since the weight is a force, its SI unit is the newton. Density is mass/volume.
