The weight itself is how much mass is there, so in theory the WEIGHT changes to how much mass there is.

What is the mass of the stone when it is at the earths center?

Its weight will change depending on the position, but its mass will hardly change.


What would happen to my mass and weight if I was on the moon?

The mass would be the same where ever you go in the universe


What is the same mass and weight?

The mass of an object doesn't change, no matter where the object goes. The object's weight changes, depending on what other masses are nearby.


Does mass of an object change depending on where it is?

No, the mass of an object is independent of where it is. The mass does not change. However, the weight (that is the product of mass and gravity acceleration) changes by change of the gravity. For example, the gravity on the moon is 1/6th that on earth. so, the object weight on the moon is 1/6th the same object weight on earth.


Does the molar mass of a compound change depending on the weight of the compound?

Molar mass depend on the ,mass,type and number of atoms in molecules of compound.


Is the mass of the body constant at all places in the Earth?

Yes, the mass doesn't change. The weight may change, depending on the local gravity. The apparent weight will change even more, because of the (ficticious) "centrifugal force".


Is mass and weight changes with change of place?

Weight changes depending on the gravitational pull exerted on an object, i.e. if it is on the Earth or if it is on the moon. Mass, however, remains constant.


Will your and mass or weight change When you travel to Neptune?

Your mass will not but your weight will.


How would weight and mass change as you moved from the earth to Jupiter?

Your mass would remain the same, because mass is constant no matter where you may be. However, your weight would shift depending on the gravity pull available.


Is weight the same as mass?

No. Mass is a measure of the quantity of physical material that makes up an object, and weight is the measure of force exerted on an object in a gravitational field. One cubic meter of lead is weightless in the middle of outer space, but it would still take a certain amount of energy to change its motion. And it would take considerably more energy to change the motion of the cube than to make the same change in the motion of a penny.


How do you calculate the difference between mass and 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.


Does your mass change if you were to travel to the moon?

Your mass will not change, but your weight will.
