Key Questions: |
- What is weight?
- The Force due to gravity.
- What is the difference between weight and gravity?
- Gravity is an attraction between objects of mass. Weight is the Force due to gravity.
- How is the weight of an object increased?
- The weight of an object will increase if the mass of the object is increased.
- How is the weight of an object increased?
- The weight of an object will increase if the gravitational pull on the object is increased.
- What is gravitational pull also measured as?
- The gravitational pull is measured as gravitational field strength.
- What is the calculation for weight?
- Weight = mass x gravitational field strength (g).
- What sort of force is produced by gravity?
- gravity produces a non-contact Force
