Question 9 • Madison 2017 Phy Sci A-35 SS
Weight depends on an object's mass and the strength of gravity where it is located. An object can have the same mass but different weights on Earth, in space, and on the moon, where gravitational strength differs. So the trip described in choice B can produce three different weights. Moving up and back down the same hill would return the object to the same weight, while gaining or losing matter would change its mass.
