_WEIGHT-FORCE_
Weight-force is the mutual pressure exerted between the terra firma surface of planets; like Earth and the moon, and gravitating masses [bodies of material matter] "resting" thereon: The magnitude of this weight-force [w] is proportional to the acceleration [g] at which the gravitating masses would free fall if they weren't restrained by the terra firma surface: At earth's surface the acceleration of free fall [g] has been found by Galileo, Newton, et al to be about 32.174' per sec². The weight-force [w] of any body, divided by one half the acceleration [g/2] at which it will free fall is a Constant [w/(g/2) = 2w/g]; which by extrapolation will apply to any body; on any planet! _NET-FORCE_ Net-force is the net, resultant pressure exerted on, and/or by bodies [masses] of material matter when they get in each other's way, and interfere with each other's free inertial motion; causing a displacement in the relative position, a distance [s] from where it would have gone, or stayed if it had continued its inertial motion. The magnitude of the net-force [f] exerted on, and/or by a body is proportional to the rate of displacement [s/t² = a/2] that it causes. Algebraically: f/(s/t²) = ft/(s/t) = ft²/s. _SUMMARY_ Actually, since weight-force is just a special case of net force: We have 2w/g = ft²/s. We can solve for the variables with algebraic transposition: w = fgt²/(2s) f = 2ws/(gt²) s = fgt²/(2w) t² = 2ws/(fg) t = sqr[2ws/(fg)] |
