Mass is the amount of matter that something is made of.
Weight is a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object usually by the earth.
Weight can change but Mass cannot. Mass always stays the same
Mass is the amount of space something or someone takes up. Weight is the amount of gravitational pull on someone or something.
weight is not constant because it is dependent to the gravitational pull on the referrence...?
mass can be used as a universal measurement where as the weight of something can change but it's more complex wern't concentratin much when i got told.
Mass= # of particles/ matter weight= the force of gravity Examples: your mass is the same on every planet, Your weight is different on different planets
The weight will be different.
Gravity is the cause of the forces that give weight to mass.
it is all to do with the gravity compaired to the mass. mass is different to weight.
The difference between weight, OK say that your on the moon your weight is the same that it was on earth but your mass will be totally different then it was on earth.
Mass= # of particles/ matter weight= the force of gravity Examples: your mass is the same on every planet, Your weight is different on different planets
The weight will be different.
Mass is the mass, weight is mass with gravity acting upon it
You can't compare WEIGHT with MASS - those two are used to measure quite different things. It doesn't make sense to say that they are the same, or that they are different. You can only compare mass with mass, or weight with weight.
weight is different in different gavities but mass is not, volume is not involved
Well mass is different from weight in one major way. Mass is how easily something can lift more than weight being how heavy an object is. For example a balloon has mass, but a person carries weight.
Weight and mass are fundamentally different things, and they are measured in different units (newton, versus kilograms). Weight is caused by mass, but it also depends on gravity. The formula is: weight = gravity x mass Mass also causes inertia.
Mass and weight are different notions in a correct physics terminology.
Gravity is the cause of the forces that give weight to mass.

1). Mass doesn't depend on what else is nearby, but weight does. 2). Mass doesn't change when it goes to different planets, but weight does. 3). Mass and weight are measured in different units and have different physical dimensions. 4). Weight is widely understood by nearly everybody, but mass isn't.
