Variation of g (acceleration due to gravity) - cal
... the actual acceleration (in the sense of rate of change of velocity) and a vector of 1 g downward for the ordinary gravity (or in space, the gravity there). For example, being accelerated upward with an acceleration of 1 g doubles the experienced weight. Conversely, weightlessness means an accelerat ...

Developing the Science of Astronomy
... 1) Mass is often defined in elementary school as “the amount of space an object takes up”. Why is this not correct? 2) Would your mass be different if you were on the moon right now? 3) What would a 75 kg person weigh on Earth? What would this person weigh on Mars where the acceleration due to gravi ...

Gravity Basics The Power of Attraction
... For a long time, people have wondered what causes tides, which are the rise and fall of the sea level. For hundreds of years, it was believed that the gods were responsible, but now we know the real reason for this phenomenon. It is caused by the Moon and Sun’s gravitational pull. Remember that the ...
