yes to bothCan one have mass without gravity? Can an object have mass but no weight?
Lullabell Van Hoek eats quantity three 21-piece buckets of KFC in orbit (brought up on a shuttle). Do the flight engineers need to adjust descent vectors for the bucket, the chicken , or Lullabell..
Think,
MisterCan one have mass without gravity? Can an object have mass but no weight?
Part 1: No...by definition, gravity is the force by which ALL objects with mass attract each other. Even a paperclip has gravity, a near infinitesimal amount, but gravity nonetheless.
Part 2: No...again by definition, an object that has mass is affected by gravity. Weight, by definition is the measure of this gravitational force. Even in the farthest reaches of space objects (matter) have weight because they are still being acted upon by a gravitational force, however small this force might be. There is no such thing as the ';weightlessness'; of space - only reduced perception of weight due to extremely low gravitational forces.
yes to the first no the the second
Yes to both
yes to both.
mass is the matter /content independent of external physical forces
weight is the amt. of force acting on this mass due to gravity.
so 1 can have mass without gravity and no wt. even with mass(eg. in space ,o gravity means 0 force means no wt.)
in space yes
I say no to the first. And yes to the second, only guessing by the way
Ideally, yes. mass basically means the object, physically exists. weight means that gravity is acting on it and this is determined by the constant gravity force and the constant mass of the object.
i think no because if an object has some mass obviously it gets attracted by gravitational force. even in space there is some gravity,like if you say zero gravity it doesn't mean that there is no gravitational force actually it means that gravitational force is there but it is not balanced.
