What does an object’s weight measure?(1 point)
the amount of matter the object contains
the amount of interaction between the object and a scale
the gravitational force that is acting on the object
the speed at which the object will fall
C
The answer is:
The gravitational force that is acting on the object.
what is the measure of the amount of matter in an object?
- mass 💗
- net force
- velocity
- newton
how much force in Newtons is required to accelerate a 5 kg bowling ball at 2 m/s2?
- 10 n 💗
- 2.5 n
- 3 n
- 7 n
which statement correctly applies to a car that changes its velocity over a period of time?
- a nonzero net force is acting on it 💗
- no net force is acting on it
- forces are acting on it
- the combination of all forces acting on it is zero
in each of three trials of an investigation, a single force is applied to a mobile. each time, the mobile acquires a different acceleration. the table shows the relationship between the acceleration and the acting force. [picture of said table] which phrase best describes a graph that would represent the relationship shown in the table?
- an upward-sloping line drawn on a graph with acceleration shown on the y-axis and force shown on the x-axis 💗
- a downward-sloping line drawn on a graph with acceleration shown on the x-axis and force shown on the y-axis
- a downward-sloping line drawn on a graph with acceleration shown on the y-axis and force shown on the x-axis
- an upward-sloping line drawn on a graph with acceleration shown on the x-axis and force shown on the y-axis
which statement describes the motion of an object when the net force is zero?
- the object is at rest 💗
- the object is speeding up
- the object changes direction
- the object is slowing down
hope this helps <3
i took this test on the 11th so some questions might be changed in the future, but these are correct as of 11/11/22
The correct answer is the gravitational force that is acting on the object.
Weight is a measure of the gravitational force pulling an object downward. It is determined by the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity.
To measure the weight of an object, you would use a scale. A scale measures the force exerted by the object on it, which is equal to the weight of the object. When you place an object on a scale, it measures the interaction between the object and the scale, giving you the weight of the object.
It's important to note that weight is different from mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object contains and does not depend on the location. However, weight can vary depending on the strength of the gravitational field acting on the object.
Additionally, weight does not measure the speed at which an object will fall. The speed at which an object falls is determined by other factors such as air resistance and the object's shape. Weight only refers to the gravitational force acting on the object, not its motion.
