Weight transformation question. please answer?

yeah, if you work out everyday and watch calories, and eat the right foods.

multiply weight ____x 10 if inactive, 11 moderatly active, 12 very active.  Take that # and subtract the 500 cal. Ex: 140 lb', inactive person 140x10+= 1400-500=900 next Ex:140x11=1540-500=1040 and so on.

Your clothes fit more loosely.  Or you could always step on the scales.  Just weigh yourself the same time each day and with approximately the same clothing on.

same mass, same weight

It's ok we all need reasurance sometimes.  it seems like you work hard but just got confused.  I'll try and help.\n\nI’ll assume you know how many pounds is lost given a certain amount of calories because I don’t.  If the desired weight is 5 pounds take the number of pounds lost per calorie and multiply it by 5..  This number is the total amount of calories needed to burn.  Then you take that number and you divide it by the number of calories burnt in an hour (740) That gives you the number of hours.\n\nI'm an economist not a nutrition major so sorry hope the suggestion helps.  It seems like your other answerers are too harsh.

For calculating weight you will be needing the specific gravity or bulk density of the material it is made of.\nElse you need a weigh balance.

weight = mass * gravity\ntherefor\nmass = weight/gravity\n\nsorry naughty but you're wrong, if you go to the moon or jupiter you will have the same mass you have in earth but you'll have a different weight

There is no equation to convert mass into weight, because it all depends on the density of the material. Even something as simple as a liter of water won't always weigh the same each time, because the temperature will change its density. Hot water is less dense than cold water, therefore the same volume of hot and cold waters don't weigh the same. Another example. Take a gallon of flour and weigh it. Now fill that same gallon container with sand and weigh it. It will not weigh the same because sand is denser than flour. \nThe bottom line is, you can't convert mass into weight because there are too many variables for one equation to solve all problems.

Nicole I think that to understand what is to be done here I suggest to assume that a coordinate system be attached to one of the objects. I-don’t-remember-who says, but << any reference system at rest or moving with linear constant speed has no privilege with others the like>>.\n(x) m2=4kg is reference system #2, where v2=0, and m1=2kg is moving with speed v=8+12=20 ms, impact by m1 on m2 M1=m1*v=40kg*m/s\n(y) m1=2kg is reference system #1, where v1=0, and m2=4kg is moving with speed v=8+12=20 ms, impact by m2 on m1 M2=m2*v=80kg*m/s, so R=40/80=0.5

Along with the other smart eating tips above, start walking 1/2hr day & drink a ton of water -- you should trim down real fast!  \n\nAlso, dont go by the scale! Use a cloth tape measure and record your losses in a journal, you will be amazed how you shape shift even if the scale isnt moving! Think about it, 1 pound is 4 cubes of butter so 5 = 20 (or 1/2 bag of potatoes! Wow huh? \n\nGood luck!

read this blog post I posted few months ago about weight loss\nhttp://health-4all.blogspot.com/2006_05_10_health-4all_archive.html

I think the equation W = m x g (W = weight; m = mass; g = acceleration due to gravity) might address your question.\n\nStating they are interchangeable might be misleading if the statement is not qualified by your textbook. The qualification is that when we are measuring objects from an earth reference point, for all intents and purposes, the weight of an object is proportional to its content (i.e., mass). In mathematical terms, the assumption would be, W = m * 1. \n\nHowever, if we are measuring objects in places other than from an earth reference point, then weight and mass are not interchangeable. For example, the force of gravity on the moon is less than on earth. So as an example, the equation for weight on the moon could be, W = m * .5. With this equation, the weight of an object on the moon is less than its weight on the earth. Here is a math example to illustrate:\n\nObject (Mass) = 100 Kg\ng(Earth) =  1 \ng(Moon) = .5\n\nW(Earth) = 100 x 1\n              = 100 Kg (Object's weight on earth)\n\nW(Moon) = 100 x .5\n              = 50 Kg (Object's weight on moon)\n\nWikipedia might explain the notion of interchange between weight and mass better:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight#Weight_and_mass

this is quite an easy conversion...\n1 pound =0.45359 kg\ntherefore \n3/4 pounds = 0.34019 kg\nhope this solves ur problem...have a nice day....

Well, I weigh 147 right now. I have lost 10 pounds so I am proud of myself.  I would really like to get back down to 120  ( that's about how much I weighed 3 years ago).  :)

Sure!\nDoing all that physical work, you burned off a lot of fat. At the same time, you gained muscle. \nHowever, the amount of fat you lost is MORE than the muscle you gained. Therefore, even though muscle weighs more than fat, your weight stayed the same.\n\nExample: Let's say you lost 3 blobs of fat and gained 1 chunk of muscle. Let's also say that a blob weighs 3 pounds, and a chunk weighs 9 pounds.\nYou lost: 3 blobs x 3 pounds = 9 pounds\nYou gained: 1 chunk x 9 pounds = 9 pounds\nYour weight stayed the same.

About 3300 lbs - \nYou convert it and at least you'll do some of your homework.

You wont lose weight this way. You will get weight.\n\nNote that Physically the data is not enough, \nBecause here mass is important and change of energy to mass\nby E=mc^2 is not largeg enough repared to the mass you have ate.
