No. Mass is the measure of how much matter is in an object, while weight is how that mass is influenced by gravity. For example, if you were to move an object from earth to Jupiter, its mass would remain the same, but its weight would increase because Jupiter is larger and would pull on it more.

Between mass and weight which is dependent on the other?

How is measurment of weight different from measurement of mass?
Mass is the mass, weight is mass with gravity acting upon it
How do you find the mass of an animal?
Basically by weighing it. Although mass is not the same as weight, if you know the weight and the gravity, you can calculate the mass.Basically by weighing it.

What are weight and mass measured in?
Weight in Newtons Mass in kilograms
How mass and weight similar?
Mass is an intrinsic property of matter. Weight is the apparent weight of a mass under a particular acceleration.
What happens to weight as mass is increased?
As the mass increases, the weight also increases correspondingly as the weight is directly proportional to the mass
Does everything with mass have weight?
Weight= massxg. Therefor, according to the formula, everything having mass will also have weight.
