Mass(m) = the amount of matter contained in an object
Weight (W) = mass x gravitational force = mg - on earth g = 9.81 kg/ms-2 or Newtons(N)
so W = m x g
m = W / g Kg

What do you multiply mass by to get the weight?
Weight = mass x gravity acceleration w= mg.
What is the weight of an oject that has a mass of 40kg?
Weight(W)=mass(M)* acceleration due to gravity(g) which is =9.8ms^2 therefore,weight of 40kg is w=40 * 9.8 w=392N
Is the mass of body the same thing as the weight?
No. The weight is the mass times the acceleration. W=ma. The weight can be zero if the acceleration is zero, even if the mass is positive. Mass and weight are not the same thing.
What is the mass of a 98.1Newton block?
Weight of a body = Mass x g 98.1 = Mass x 9.81 Mass = 10 kg.
What relationship does mass and weight comman?
The relationship between mass and weight is that mass is constant in any environment, whereas weight changes from planet to planet because the gravitational pull is different, from which the weight depends on.
What does a 4inches x 8inches x 16inches hollow concrete block weigh?
you need to have the density of the concrete block. after you find it, use the formula density = mass/volume --> mass = density x volume to calculate the mass. if you want to find the weight in Newtons, use W = mg where m is the mass and g is 9.81N/kg. that will give you the weight of the block. for this case, the volume is 4m x 8m x 16m ( i assume it is in metres cos no units were given) = 512m^3. find the density in kg/m^3 and use the above formula mass = density x volume to calculate the mass. use W = mg to find the weight of the block in Newtons.
What do you multiply mass by to get the weight?
Weight = mass x gravity acceleration w= mg.
What is the weight of an oject that has a mass of 40kg?

If an object has a mass of 36,500 g on Earth, what is its weight?
Weight is given by the formula, W=mg W is the weight of the object in newtons m is the mass of the object in kilograms
What is the weight of a cement block in Kilograms?
A larger block will weigh more, a smaller block will weigh less. Also, kilograms is a unit of mass, not of weight.
Is the mass of body the same thing as the weight?
No. The weight is the mass times the acceleration. W=ma. The weight can be zero if the acceleration is zero, even if the mass is positive. Mass and weight are not the same thing.
Is mass and weight measured in cubic inches?
Mass is measured in Kilograms (kgs) or Pounds Weight is measured in Newtons there is a difference between mass and weight because weight depends on gravity, mass does not. So you weight changes depending on which planet you are on. Weight W masss m gravitational accelearation g W = mg
What formula relates weight and mass?
w=mg
How is measurment of weight different from measurment of mass?
Weight is the force of gravity acting on a body, W = mg, where W is weight, m is mass, and g is acceleration due to gravity, 9.8m/s2. The unit for weight is the Newton (N). Mass is what you measure on a laboratory scale or balance.
How are mass and weight interrelated?
W = m * g Weight of an object equals the mass of the oject multiplied by the gravitaional constant
Difference in mass and weight?
mass is the actual ''density'' of an object. whereas weight is determined by gravity and mass w=m*g hope this helps
What is the mass of a 98.1Newton block?
Weight of a body = Mass x g 98.1 = Mass x 9.81 Mass = 10 kg.
