... Mass: Mass is the amount of material present in an object. This dimension describes how much material makes up an object. Often, mass and weight are confused as being the same because the units used to describe them are similar. Weight is a derived unit, not a fundamental unit, and is a measurement ...

Short Answers to Questions
... Q.2 An object is thrown vertically upward. Discuss the sign of acceleration due to gravity, relative to velocity, while the object is in air. Ans. Since direction of initial velocity is upward. So g will be negative, relative to velocity. For downward motion, g is positive with reference to the dire ...

... developed at MIT by diSessa (1980). In addition, within the Introductory University Physics Project (Di Stefano, 1996; Coleman, Holcomb & Rigden, 1998) the idea to base physics upon conservation laws, rather than Newton’s equations was put forward (Moore, 2003). The KPC uses the observation that the ...
