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 of gravity on an object, and mass is the volume o space it takes up, independent of the gravitational pull.


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 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 gravity relate to a persons mass?

The WEIGHT is the measure of the force of gravity on an object (including people).weight = mass x gravitational field The gravitational field near Earth's surface is approximately 9.8 newton/kilogram.


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.
