About This Course
Ever felt heavy on a rollercoaster or floated in a pool? That’s weight in action!
In this lesson, you’ll explore the difference between mass and weight, learn how gravity changes at high altitudes and deep oceans, and discover how G-forces make pilots feel super heavy—or totally weightless!
Whether you're flying over Mount Everest, diving to the Mariana Trench, or blasting off in a Zero-G plane, you’ll uncover how weight shapes every part of aviation—from takeoff to balance and control. You'll also see how engineers measure and manipulate weight to ensure safety and performance in aircraft design.
Understanding these concepts is crucial for anyone interested in the fields of aviation or physics.
