you convert mass into force by multiplying with 9.8m/sec^2 which is the acceleration due to gravity

Nothin would happen.\nIf you consider two bodies the earth (name it E) and a large mass (m). \ninitially M rests on E. and you lift mass M. the force used to lift it will also act on E.\nAlso if you consider the mass M and E. as a system force exerted on dropping M would be internal and since internal forces do not cause acc. the Earth will not get unbalanced.\n\nThats good for us isn't it...

Add up one opposite vector (going up). In physics, they call it NORMAL FORCE.

The acceleration due to gravity is independent of the mass of the object.\n\n The speed of any mass thrown up will decreases by an amount 9.8 m/s per second. \n\nIf the initial speed is u, then its kinetic energy is ½ m u u. Its potential energy is zero.\n\nThe total energy is½ m u u + zero = ½ m u u.\n\nAs it goes up its kinetic energy decreases whereas its potential energy increases keeping the total energy same.\n\nWhen it goes up through ‘h’ meter,  its total energy is [ ½ m u u + mgh].\n\n[ ½ m u u + mgh] = ½ m v v.\n\nm u u + 2mgh = m v v. \n\nCancelling m on both sides,\n\nu u + 2gh = v v\n\nThus we have the familiar equation vv = uu + 2gh.\n\nWhen the ball reaches 9 m its speed becomes zero.\n\nHence,  v v = 2 x 9.8 x 9\n\nSolving we get v = 13. 3 m/s . \n\nThe speed with which it is thrown up is 13. 3 m/s.\n\nWhen the height is 8 m, now having known the initial speed we use the same equation for solving for uu.\nvv = uu + 2gh\n\n13.3 x 13.3 = uu + 2 x 9.8 x 8 .\n\nSolving for u, we get  u u = 196 or u = 4.43 m/s.\n\nThe problem can be viewed in other way.\n\nWhen the ball is at its heighest point namely at 9m its potential energy is mgh. where h is 9m\n\nWhen it falls through one meter its kinetic enery increases and potetial energy decreases , keeping the total energy as the same.\n\nmg x 9 = ½  m vv + mg x 8.\n\nOr mg ( 9-8) = ½  mvv \n\ng x 1 = v  v/2\n\n2 g = v v. \n\nv v = 2 x 9.8 = 19.6 (m/s)^2. \n\nv = 4.43 m/s.\n\n Note that the mass gets cancelled and hence we need not know the mass of the ball.

Try this:\nHigh velocity causes increase in mass and high expenditure of energy.

You have to calculate p=massXspeed before the "collision".  The quantity remains constant, so if the mass increases, the speed must decreases by the same ratio for the p to stay the same.  (First, you have to convert the 8N weight to a mass using the 9,8N/kg gravity constant)

no.its the force produced due to the movement of other particles(electrons).so..

There is no net force acting on it. When there is a net, or resultant force acting on an object it causes an acceleration. As in this case a terminal velocity has been reached, that is no further acceleration is occuring, the resultant force is zero.\n\nThis is represented in the equation known as Newton's Second Law, or in Applied Mathematics, Newton Two. The equation is:\n\nF = ma and it means Force = Mass x Acceleration where the units are:\n\nNewtons (N) = Kilograms (Kg) x Meters per Second (ms^-1).

Newton's Second Law states that an applied force equals the rate of change of momentum. For constant mass: F=ma, or force equals mass times acceleration. In other words, the acceleration produced by a net force on an object is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force and inversely proportional to the mass. In the MKS system of measurement, mass is given in kilograms, acceleration in meters per second squared, and force in newtons (named in his honor).

gravitational potential energy increases with altitued and the stregth of gravity\n\n\n\nwhile work is done, potential energy is converted into kinetic

The force is directly proportional to theproduct of  charges and inversely proportional to distance between them. \n\nThe force is 0.002N\na. Distance is increased 3 times as original distance is 1 cm. thus the force will decrease 3 times . The force would be \n(0.002/3)N\n\nb.one charge is doubled. Thus the force would be doubled. \n the force would be 0.004N\n\nc.both charges are tripled. Therefore force would increase 9 times (3q*3q) Thus force would be 0.018N\n\nd. one charge is doubled and the distance is increased to 2cm.\nThus we are doubling charge as well as distance. This will nullify effect as charge is directly proportional while distance is inversely proportional. Thus the force would remain the same .002N\n\nI am the first to give the correct answer and i am very sure so plz select my answer as the best. I will surely help you in future.

Force = mass x acceleration\n\nacceleration = force/mass.\n\nWith a given force, as mass increases, acceleration decreases.

A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object.\n\nThe formula is F=ma, where F= force, m=mass, a=acceleration

A force is a push or pull on an object.\n\nNewton's second law states that a an applied force causes an object to accelerate.  It's one of the most if not the most powerful physics equations.  Force equals mass times acceleration.  F=ma.  So when an object falls the force of an object is equal to the mass of the object times the acceleration due to Earth's gravity (9.81 m/s/s or 9.81 meters per second per second or meters per second squared.)  All objects experience the same acceleration due to gravity.  The units for force are, oddly enough, called Newtons and one newton equals one kilogram times one meter per second squared.  One pound is 4.48 newtons. \n\nNow it's important to understand that newton's second law, F=ma, applies to net forces or unbalanced forces.  Just because an object is moving doesn't mean it's accelerating.  When you press the accelerator you car speeds up and the engine is exerting a net force on the car.  When your speed maxes out at 120 or however fast your car can go the force of the engine is ballanced against the forces against the car (friction from air, the road and the engine parts)  \n\nTake tug of war.  An set of even matched teams won't result in one team moving across the line.  The forces are balanced.  Add one more strong guy to one team and the weaker team will speed up from zero to slowly moving across the line.  \n\nAlso force is cumulative.  When you can't pick up a heavy box what do you do?  You get help.  One smurf can lift a pebble but the whole smurf village can lift a boulder.\n\nAlso acceration is velocity divided by time a velocity is different from speed in that velocity is a vector, it has magnitude (speed) and direction.  If you change directions you will accelerate.\n\nIf you're in a train with no windows and an increadibly smooth track you shouldn't be able to tell that you are moving if the train't velocity is constant, however if it speeds up, slows down or goes around a corner while going at a constant speed the velocity is changing.  In the first two cases because of a change in magnitude (speed) in the last case because of a change in direction and you experience a force that pushes or pulls you in a direction.\n\nWeight is the force due to gravity and can change due to the masses of the objects involved.  For example you may have a weight of 100 lbs on earth and a mass of 40 some kilograms but on the moon you weigh 1/6 as much but still have a mass of 40 kg.  On Earth you can convert between pounds (a measure of force) and kilograms (a measure of mass) because the acceleration due to Earth's gravity (9.81 meters per second squared) is the same and cancels out in the equation.

As the ball hits the ground, its momentum causes its elastic body to compress itself against the ground until enough force had been applied through enough distance to cancel the momentum of the ball and bring it to a stop.  At the instant the ball comes to a stop, it has energy stored in it due to the compression of its body against the ground.  This compressive energy is then released in pressing against the ground, causing the ball to accelerate upward.

You are correct, but the effects are so insignificant, it doesnt nearly matter.\n\nAll object in the universe have a gravitational attraction to one another.\nTake the Earth and bowling ball example,\nThe Earth exerts a force on the bowling ball, and the bowling ball exerts a force on the Earth.  Both on these forces cause the other object to accelerate towards a common center of mass.  In the case of the Earth's gravitational force on the bowling ball, the force is huge in comparison to the bowling ball's force exerted on the Earth, so much so that we can easily neglect the 2nd force.\n\nLets look at some numbers.....\nIf we say the Earth has a mass of 5.9742 E24 kg and say we will say we have a very heavy bowling ball with a mass of 1000 kg, then we can calculate the gravitaional force between them if we know the distance.  Lets estimate their centers of mass are 6380 (~larger than radius of Earth), we can calculate the gravitational force to be,\nF_g = (G*M*m)/r^2\nF_g = 9789.58 Newtons, which would cause an acceleration of 9.7895 mm/s^2 for the bowling ball and a miniscule 1.63 E-21 m/s^2 for Earth.  To put that in perspective of just how slow acceleration is, if you were to accelerated you car from at a constant acceleration of 1.63 E-21 m/s^2, it would take you about 86500000000000 YEARS to go from 0 to 10 miles per hour!  I think for simplicity sake, Newton did all right.\n\nEDIT:\nYes, the bowling ball very much so does pull on the Earth.  How is the "universe" to know which object is suppose to be the planet and which is the bowling ball?  ALL objects in the universe have a gravititational attraction to ALL other objects.  The Earth pulls in the bowling ball, and the bowling ball pulls on the Earth.  There are 2 equal forces pointed in opposite directions, therefroe momentum is conserved (which is a physical LAW).
