Mass is the amount of matter existing in your body and weight due to gravity, a body's weight is different on earth than to when on moon.

How do weight and mass relate to each other?

Mass directly affects weight. If an object has more mass, it will weigh more.


How does weight relate to gravity and mass?

Weight is the force generated by gravity pulling an object towards the center of the Earth. An object's weight depends on its mass and the strength of the gravitational force acting upon it. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains, while weight is the force exerted on that mass due to gravity.


How many kilometers are in 2 pounds?

noneKilometer is a unit of length and pounds is a unit of weight. Something can be long but it doesn't relate in weight or mass.


How does the mass of an object relate to its weight?

The mass of an object never changes, the weight of an object changes depending on the gravitational force (or which planet you're on). So on earth, the gravitational field strength is 10, so if your mass is 50kg, your weight is 500N


How you relate weight and gravitation force?

Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object. It is the mass of an object multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. The gravitational force pulling an object towards the Earth's center causes it to have weight.


Does weight depend on matter?

Sort of.Mass is an inherent property of matter.Weight is the measurement of the strength of the pull of a gravity field on a mass.Thus a 1 Kg mass will weigh 1Kg on Earth but only 1/3 Kg on the Moon where the Moons gravity is only 1/3 of that of Earth.Thus mass does relate to weight and as mass is a property of matter weight does depend on matter.

The mass of reactants is equal to the mass of products.

These values are similar.


If the weight of an object of mass m is mg then the weight of an object of mass 2m is?

The weight of an object of mass 2m is 2mg. Weight is directly proportional to mass, so if you double the mass, you double the weight.


How is law of conservation of mass relate to balancing reactions?

The mass of reactants is equal to the mass of products.


How does gravity relate to the mass of objects?

Classically, gravity is proportional to mass (stationary gravitational mass).
