The weight of an object would be less on the Moon than on the Earth.Weight refers to a force experienced by an object.The weight of an object is dependent upon the value of the acceleration of gravity.Which of the following statements are true of the quantity weight? List all that apply. The mass of an object is mathematically related to the weight of the object.ģ.If all other variables are equal, then it would require less exerted force to stop a less massive object than to stop a more massive object.If all other variables are equal, then an object with a greater mass would have a more difficult time accelerating.The mass of an object can be measured in pounds.People in Weight Watcher's are really concerned about their mass (they're mass watchers).An object would have more mass on Mount Everest than the same object in the middle of Lake Michigan.The mass of an object is variable and dependent upon its location.Mass depends on how much stuff is present in an object.

The standard metric unit of mass is the kilogram.The mass of an object is dependent upon the value of the acceleration of gravity.Which of the following statements are true of the quantity mass? List all that apply. In a gravity-free environment (should there be one), a person with a lot of inertia would have the same ability to make a turn as a person with a small amount of inertia.Ģ.Inertia is the tendency of all objects to resist motion and ultimately stop.An object would not have any inertia in a gravity-free environment (if there is such a place).Fast-moving objects have more inertia than slow-moving objects.A more massive object has more inertia than a less massive object.Inertia is a force which brings all objects to a rest position.Inertia is a force which keeps stationary objects at rest and moving objects in motion at constant velocity.Which of the following statements are true of inertia? List all that apply. Part A: Mass, Inertia, Weight, and Newton's First Law of Motionġ. The Review Session » Newton's Laws of Motion » Printable Version Newton's Laws of Motion Review
