Weight and mass is not the same.
Mass is the amount of matter something has while weight is the amount of gravity exerted on something. The mass of an object never changes no matter where you go, but weight does. For example, if an object weighs 10 kg on Earth, it would weight a lot more on the Jupiter because of the Jupiter's greater gravity. However, the mass would stay the same. Weight is related to mass.
Weight = mass x amount of gravity.
What else can I help you with?
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.
find the total mass of 2 objects that weigh 314 N and 271 N?
314 N + 271 N = 585 N BUT mass is not the same as weight! Weight is measured in Newtons (N) and mass in Kg. On Earth, 9.8N/Kg is the weight to mass ratio, so... 585 divided by 9.8 is roughly 60, so... Total mass = 60 Kg (585 N)
What is the mass on the moon of a 10 N object on earth?
The mass of an object remains the same regardless of the location. Therefore, the mass of a 10 N object on Earth would be the same on the Moon. However, the weight of the object would be different due to the difference in gravitational pull between the two locations.
If you weight 300 Newtons on earth then what is your mass and weight in mars?
You need to:1) Divide the weight by Earth's gravity, to get the mass. 2) Remember that the mass will be the same on Mars. 3) Multiply the mass by the gravity of Mars, to get the weight on Mars.
What is the metric unit for weight?
Newtons (symbol: N).Do not confuse weight with mass (the unit of mass is the kilogram). Weight is the downward force exerted by a mass because of the pull of gravity.The unit of weight is Kg*m/s2Metric unit for mass is kilograms (kg), however weight is a different measurement defined as force that will act on the object due gravity of a given planet (so it measures in Newtons, N). On Earth your weight is almost the same as your mass (and that is not a coincidence) but on the other planet your mass will remain the same (say 70kg) while your weigh may change dramatically (depending on the gravity of the planet). In the free fall state your weight is zero.
What is the mass if the weight is 490 N?
Oh, dude, weight and mass are like two peas in a pod, but not quite. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, so if the weight is 490 N, the mass would be 490 divided by the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2), which is about 50 kg. So, yeah, that's the mass, but who's really keeping track, right?
What is mass in mathematics?
a mass in a math is the weight in n object
When an astronaut walks on the moon is either her mass or her weight the same as on earths?
The mass is the same; the weight is not.
If an object weights 39.2 n on earth what is its mass?
Weight = (mass) x (gravity)Mass = (weight) / (gravity) = (39.2 N) / (9.8 m/sec2) = 4 kilograms
What times mass equals weight?
Mass (kg) x Gravitational Field Strength (Gravity) (N/kg) = Weight (N)GFS on earth = 10 N/kg
What is the mass in kilogram in 1 N?
Kilogram (kg) is a unit of mass; Newton (N) is a unit of force. The two are not directly convertible. However, if you assume a specific value for gravity, like 9.82 (which is approximately the gravity of Earth - in meters per second square, or N/kg), a mass of 1 kg. will have a weight of 1 N. For the equivalent mass for 1 N, or any number of N, just divide by the same factor. (Note that a weight is a kind of force.)Kilogram (kg) is a unit of mass; Newton (N) is a unit of force.

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.
