Weight is given by the formula, W=mg W is the weight of the object in newtons m is the mass of the object in kilograms

What factors affect the weight of an object on Earth?
The weight of an object on Earth is influenced by the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity. Weight is calculated by multiplying an object's mass by the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2 on Earth). Therefore, variations in either mass or gravity can affect an object's weight on Earth.
If a toy has a weight of 1kg what is its earth weight?
The weight of an object on Earth is the same as its mass, which is 1kg in this case. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.
What does an object have to have for weight to act on it?
An object must have mass for there to be weight. There also must be another mass (such as Earth) that exerts a gravitational pull on the object for there to be weight.
Does an object on earth have the same mass as it does on earth?
Yes. The mass of an object is always the same, but the weight of an object depends on the force of gravity on it.
How do you change an object's mass on earth to its mass on the moon?
The object's mass is the same wherever it is. Mass doesn't change. What changes is the object's weight.The weight depends on what other mass happens to be nearby.When you know the object's weight on earth, multiply that by 0.1633 to find its weight on the moon.If you don't need it that close, it might be easier to just divide the earth weight by 6.
Compare the changes in the weight of a ball with the changes in the balls mass as the height of the ball above earths surface increases?
Mass and Weight The gravitational force Earth exerts on an object is the weight of the object. Because weight is a force, it is measured in newtons. Weight is not the same as mass. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains, and is measured in kilograms. Even if the mass of an object doesn't change, its weight will change if its distance from Earth changes
What is the measure of the earth's pull on an object?
The measure of the Earth's pull on an object is called its gravity, which is commonly quantified as the object's weight. This force is determined by the mass of the object and the mass of the Earth, as well as the distance between them.
What is the relationship between mass of an object on earth and its weight?
W=mgon earth, weight is approximately 10 times the mass of the object.Weight of an object= mass of object x acceleration due to gravitywhere g on earth ~ 10 ms-2 (=9.81 ms-2 )and mass/ kilograms
If an object has a mass of 70 kg and a weight of 686 N on Earth what would the object's mass and weight on Jupiter be?
Your mass is always the same.
Why is there a difference in an object's weight on Earth and on the Moon?
Because the gravitational force between any two objects depends on the product of both their masses. The object's weight on earth depends on the object's mass and the earth's mass, whereas its weight on the moon depends on the object's mass and the moon's mass. Since the moon's mass is very different from the earth's mass, the object's weight is also different there.
What factors effect the weight of an object on earth?
Only the object's mass.
Would a mass of a solid of g have same weight on earth?
Yes, the mass of a solid in grams would be the same on Earth, as mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. However, the weight of the object would be different on Earth compared to other celestial bodies, as weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.
