Awesome, I wasn't aware, just trying to alleviate confusion. I deal with physics quite extensively too, being a Mechanical Engineer and all.Z-trooper wrote:
I am aware of that fact that gravity give mass weight.. but as you might be able to see, I wrote it so it hopefully would be easy-understandable.. try to bring it a bit down to earth.. I can asure you that I know what I'm talking about though my speciality isn't energy, I know my way around physics I work on satellites at the University of Aalborg, Denmark.. where I develop attitude control and determination systems based on magnetic coils.. so I use A LOT of physics there.. I also have a "degree" in basic physics and astro physics..heggs wrote:
Z-trooper, fyi, Mass does not equal weight. Mass is the amount of material in an object, weight is dependent on gravity. Something has a mass of x kg, while is has a weight of y N.
Converting this to english units: Mass = x slugs (this is a very confusing unit, as there are two different types of slugs, oddly enough; if you would like a better explanation, let me know), weight = y pounds.
I can whip out the big boys physics if people want a more detailed and scientific description like I said in the first post..
