HomeArticles, FAQWould the springs inside a bathroom scale be more compressed feels heavy or less compressed feels light if you weighed yourself in an elevator that accelerated upward downward?

The springs inside a bathroom scale are not compressed more or less, but the same if one weighs oneself in an elevator that moves upward or downward at a constant velocity.

Q. What would be the path of the moon if somehow all gravitational forces on it vanished to zero?

What would be the path of the Moon if somehow all gravitational forces on it vanished to zero? The Moon would move in a straight-line path instead of circling both the sun and earth. Is the force of gravity stronger on a crumpled piece of paper that on an identical piece of paper that has not been crumpled?

Q. Would the springs inside a bathroom scale be more compressed or less compressed If you?

The springs inside the bathroom scale are more compressed if the elevator is accelerating upwards and shows a greater weight reading. If the lift is accelerating downwards, the springs inside the bathroom scale are less compressed and shows a lesser weight reading.

Q. How does the force of gravity between 2 bodies change when the distance between them is doubled?

How does the force of gravity between two bodies change when the distance between them is doubled? The force decreases to ¼ of its initial value.

Q. How does the force of gravity between two bodies change when the distance?

Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases.

Q. Why does gravity get stronger as two masses get closer?

The closer you get, the stronger the gravitational pull is because you are getting closer to the big massive object. That means the bigger the black hole, the stronger the pull is.

Q. Is it possible to make gravity stronger?

Objects with more mass have more gravity. Gravity also gets weaker with distance. So, the closer objects are to each other, the stronger their gravitational pull is. You exert the same gravitational force on Earth that it does on you.

Q. What object has the strongest gravitational pull in the universe?

The Sun
