Best Answer

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

Can mass and weight have anything to do with each other?

Yes... Weight=mass*acceleration


How are mass and weight are different from each other?

they are not defferent from each other they are the some thing


How do weight and mass differ from each other?

Weight is how heavy something is and mass is how much space something takes up.


How do mass and weight relate?

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.


Which of these are directly proportional to each other in the same location on earth?

weight and mass


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.


What does it mean to say mass and weight are proportional to each other?

It means that although they are not equal, there is a correlation between them, e.g., mass directly affects weight. If an object has more mass, it will weigh more.


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.


What is a measure of the effect gravity has upon a mass?

The more mass an object has, the more gravity acts on it. Mass actually is known to affect weight because they both depend on each other. =============================== HONK! Beulah the Buzzer has an objection to raise. Mass does not depend on weight. "Weight" is the name we give to the gravitational force acting on a mass.


Between mass and weight which is dependent on the other?

The weight is dependent on the mass. Mass is the same everywhere but since weight is mass * acceleration due to gravity, weight is the dependent variable.


How is gravity and weight?

Weight = Mass * Acceleration of gravity. Weight = force of gravity on particular object. Weight = force of gravity on an object; Gravity = attracts all objects toward each other
