One of many, yes. Weight will determine the matter's 'mass', since those two properties
are inextricably linked in a gravity well (on the surface of a planet).
No, weight is a measure of the force exerted on an object due to gravity. It is not a measure of the quantity of matter, which is more accurately described by mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and remains constant regardless of the object's location.
The appropriate unit to measure weight is the newton. Now, if it is really the mass you wanted, you could use kilogram or gram.
Weight is actually a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. It is not directly a measure of the amount of matter in an object. The amount of matter in an object is typically referred to as its mass.
Mass is a quantity that describes the concentration of matter. Mass is an aggregate measure of matter and it also determines the weight of an object.
pound
weight.
Mass is a measure of how much matter an object has. Weight is a measure of how strongly gravity pulls on that matter.
Kilograms or pounds.
A good measure would be Tons (2,000 pounds)
No, measuring a sofa in grams is not appropriate as grams are used to measure weight, not dimensions. It would be more appropriate to measure a sofa in inches or centimeters to determine its size.
Grams or milligrams would be appropriate units to measure the weight of a five peso coin.
Weight is a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object, while mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight can vary depending on the gravitational pull of a location, whereas mass remains constant regardless of location.
