Mass
The atoms were made up of, measures in kg
1 of 7
Weight
The force due to gravity, measure in newtons
2 of 7
Centre of Mass
To make things easier for physicists we always take an objects mass to be acting at one singular point
3 of 7
Equation for Weight
Weight= Mass x Gravitational Field Strength
4 of 7
The arrows on the diagram shows what?
Direction and relative magnitudes of the force
5 of 7
If the force is balanced it means what?
It means that the object is either stationary or at a constant speed.
6 of 7
If the force is unbalanced it means what?
It means that the object is either accelerating or decelerating
