Question

what is the weight of a body during free fall. give REASON

Answer 1

The weight of the body during a free fall is same as the normal rate of the body because in both the cases the force acting on the body is downward gravitational force or u can say mg.

Answer 2

Answer:

Weight (W)=mg

Explanation:

When the objects falls freely means Neglecting the air resistance(all the types of drags associated with the body)then free fall is defined.

Weight is the attractive force exerted by the body towards the earth surface.

Since

F=ma........................(1)

During free fall a=g...................(2)

From (1) and (2)

F=mg

So,weight (W)=mg Here g remains constant.

g=9.8m/s^2.

So,Weight is the function of Mass alone during free fall.
