Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
Example: air
Weight is a force of gravity between Earth and an object.
Example: A book has weight and a pencil.
The Difference:
Mass - is the amount of matter in an object
Weight - the magnitude of gravitational force acting on an object
How they are measured:
Mass - balance
Weight - scale
Unit of measurement:
Mass - grams (g) and kilograms (kg)
Weight - newtons (N)
Mass is the weight inside of an object. Weight is the actuall heaviness of an object.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight is the effect of the force of gravity on the mass of an object.
The difference between weight, OK say that your on the moon your weight is the same that it was on earth but your mass will be totally different then it was on earth.
yes, mass is the amount of stuff you are made of, it does not change, weight depends on the force of gravity, which is why you weigh less on the moon.
The mass of an object tells how much matter is present in the object. The weight tells how strongly gravity pulls it down.
Unit of measurement:Mass - grams (g) and kilograms (kg)Weight - newtons (N)
I do not know the answer.The difference between mass and capacity is that capacity is how much something can hold and mass is the weight of an object.
The mass is 64.44 grams. But the difference between mass and weight is that mass is weight is how heavy it is on the planet you weigh it on and mass it the weight it is on Earth, whether is is on Earth, or not.
The difference between a person's weight on the earth and on the moon has to due with the difference between mass and weight. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter and weight is the pull of gravity on that mass. Gravity on the moon is about 83% that on earth, so if you weigh 100 lbs on earth, you will weigh approximately 17 lbs on the moon.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight is the effect of the force of gravity on the mass of an object.
The difference between weight, OK say that your on the moon your weight is the same that it was on earth but your mass will be totally different then it was on earth.
They are quite different things. The relationship between the two is: weight = mass x gravity.For more information about the difference between the two, check the Wikipedia article on "Mass versus weight".
Mass is the amount of "stuff" in an object or a region of space. Weight is the gravitational force between two masses. When you're talking about weight, the earth is usually one of the masses. Your mass never changes, regardless of where you are. Your weight does change, depending on what the other mass is.
Mass is the amount of matter or molecules that a specific object is composed of. Weight is the measure of gravity's pull on you. Does this help answer your question?
yes, mass is the amount of stuff you are made of, it does not change, weight depends on the force of gravity, which is why you weigh less on the moon.
The mass of an object tells how much matter is present in the object. The weight tells how strongly gravity pulls it down.
The difference between muscle mass and muscle hypertrophy is that muscle hypertrophy is the increase in size of skeletal muscle while muscle mass is the weight of your body muscle.
There is no difference between mass anywhere in the universe; it will always be a specific type of bonding between atoms anywhere it goes. However, weight may change due to different gravities on different planets
