I make an explicit distinction between inertial mass and gravitational mass. Lets call them m' for inertial mass and m~ for gravitational mass. If a is an acceleration due to an inertial force, and g is the acceleration due to gravity, then weight = (m~)(g) inertial force = (m')(a) See my

Michel, This time I am being serious. If one begins with the postulate that that all weight is apparent weight then it is easier to understand how and why weight anomalies might arise. Gravity is the tendency of a body to accelerate. Weight is only a _measure_ of this tendency, and it is a relat

2006-11-23 Thread Harry Veeder
If charged particles have weight then they would weigh less when moving in a horizontal plane. Why? Because the faster you travel over the surface of the Earth, the less you weigh. Weight is maximum when you are not travelling. Weight is minimum ( ~ zero ) when you are travelling at ~ 17000 mph
