G6 L-19 : Calculation of the Magnitude of the Effect of Force

What is the unit of mass in the SI system?

• ounce

• pound

• gram

• kilogram

What is the unit of weight in the SI system?

• newton

• pound

• gram

• kilogram

How is weight defined in physics?

• Weight is the mass of an object without gravity.

• Weight is the temperature of an object.

• Weight is the total volume of an object.

• Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object.

What does mass represent in an object?

• Mass measures the speed of an object.

• Mass is the weight of an object.

• Mass represents the amount of matter in an object.

• Mass indicates the volume of an object.

Is weight the same as mass? Why or why not?

• Mass is a measure of weight.

• Weight is a measure of volume.

• Weight and mass are the same thing.

• No, weight is not the same as mass.

What happens to the mass of an object if it is broken into pieces?

• The mass decreases as energy is released.

• The mass becomes zero when broken apart.

• The mass increases due to fragmentation.

• The mass remains the same.

What force is responsible for weight?

• Magnetism

• Friction

• Tension

• Gravity

How does gravitational acceleration affect weight?

• Weight is constant regardless of gravitational acceleration.

• Gravitational acceleration directly affects weight; higher acceleration increases weight.

• Weight decreases with higher gravitational acceleration.

• Gravitational acceleration has no effect on weight.

If an object has a mass of 10 kg, what is its weight on Earth?

• 100 N

• 9.81 N

• 98.1 N

• 10 N

What direction does weight act towards?

• Inward towards the core of the Earth

• Sideways towards the horizon

• Upward towards the sky

• Downward towards the center of the Earth
