Das Gewicht eines Menschen, das er selber erlebt oder das ihm eine Waage anzeigt, ist nicht konstant, sondern hängt von der Bewegung, genauer von der Beschleunigung des Menschenleibes ab. Dieses «erscheinende Gewicht» wird hier allgemein qualitativ und quantitativ behandelt und an zwei Beispielen, der Schaukelbewegung und der Fallbewegung eines Steines im Wasser, genauer dargestellt. Dies geschieht ohne Verwendung des tradierten Schwerkraftbegriffs.
N1 -A person’s weight, either experienced themselves or obtained from weighing scales, is not constant but depends on the movement, or more precisely, the acceleration of their body. This ‘apparent weight’ is here examined qualitatively and quantitatively and presented more exactly using two examples: the swinging and falling movements of a stone in water. This is done without using the conventional concept of gravity.
