Not accurately. Weight is a function of gravity acting on mass. Objects underground have gravity pulling them up as well as down.

What detirmines the weight of an object?
The weight of an object is determined by volume, density, and gravity.
Can The mass of an object can be determined by weighing the object and using a conversion factor for weight to mass?
False
Is the weight of an object determined by the pull of inertia?
No. The weight by an object is related to the object's mass. Inertia is a separate effect, also due to mass - but there is no such thing as a "pull of inertia".
what is relationship between weight and mass?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the gravitational force applied to an object. Mass is a function of weight since weight it determined by the amount of force placed on an object of a certain mass.
What of an object is the amount of matter in it as determined by its weight in grams kilograms or ounces pounds?
Mass
The amount of kinetic energy an object has can be determined by finding its and?
Mass and velocity (weight and speed)
Would your weight be the same on mercury?
no........ the weight is determined by the gravitational pull on any object gravitational pull of different planet is different. therefore, the weight changes
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 does the force of gravity on an object determine?
When you weigh yourself, the force of gravity is pulling you down to the scale. Therefore weight is determined by gravity.
What determines the value of gravity mass and weight?
Mass is the amount of matter contained in an object. Gravity is determined by the mass of two objects and the distance between them. Weight is the resulting force.
Is a mass or weight determined by gravity?
[ Mass ] is a property of the object, and doesn't depend on the presence or strength of gravity.[ Weight ] is the result of gravity, and changes depending on the local strength of gravity.
Is weight determined by your genetics?
Weight is not entirely determined by your genetics, but it does have a strong influence.
