Is a mass or weight determined by gravity?
[ Mass ] is a property of the object, and doesn't depend on the presence or strength of gravity.[ Weight ] is the result of gravity, and changes depending on the local strength of gravity.
How is weight different than density?
density is weight compared to size and how much mass is in object weight is just weight.
What is weight and how does it compare to mass?
weight is the whole no. or mass of atoms which composes the substance is known its weight. weight and mass are co related because mass comprises or known its weight. but in mass whole surfaces are included.(in mathematics).
What happens to the mass and weight of an object if it is transported to another planet?
Mass . . . No change. Weight . . . Changes & depends on the gravity on the other planet compared to the gravity on Earth.
Does gravity cause weight?
No. Fat causes weight.. Gravity is simply used to measure it.answ2. Mass is a property of matter. Mass times acceleration equals weight.Gravity is indeed a property of matter, but doesn't really enter the simple picture of weight.
How mass and weight similar?
Mass is an intrinsic property of matter. Weight is the apparent weight of a mass under a particular acceleration.
Is weight a physical or chemical property?
Weight (or mass) is considered a physical property
What property of matter is measuring matter?
The property of matter that is measured in grams is mass. Mass is different from weight in that it accounts for the gravitational forces that increase the weight of an object.
What is mass responsible for?
Mass is the property of a body that causes it to have weight in a gravitational field.

This is expressed as the weight of a mineral compared with the weight of an equal volume of water?
This is the specific gravity of the mineral. It's a comparison of how much mass a given volume of it has compared to the mass of an equal volume of water.
How is weight different than density?
density is weight compared to size and how much mass is in object weight is just weight.
Are Weight and mass are different words for the same property of matter?
False
What property is size?
Some properties are mass, weight, and volume.
What is a dependent property?
Some properties are mass, weight, and volume.
What is mass and matter?
mass is known the weight but matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. mass is a property of matter.
Is height a physical or chemical property?
Height is a physical property, just like color or weight (mass).
