Mass: informally the "amount of matter". It affects both an object's weight, and its inertia.
Weight: The gravitational attraction. It is dependent on the mass, but also on the strength of the gravitational field. For example, the same object - with the same mass - weighs less on the Moon than on Earth.
Mass is a basic property of mater. It is measured in Kilograms. Kg
Weight is a unit of force: mass x acceleration it is measured in Newtons. Kg m/s2
When you weigh yourself what you are actually measuring is the force of gravity on you. The acceleration of gravity is produced by the mass of the earth, approximately 10m/s2
What the scale gives you however is your mass in Kg since their is a direct linear relationship the conversion is simple to do.
Mass is a measure of how much stuff is in an object.
Weight is a measure of the force that that mass produces due to gravity.
For example, a steel ball with a mass of 1kg will always have a mass of 1kg where ever it is.
However, its weight will be greater on the surface of Earth (where the force of gravity is high) than in space (where the force of gravity is low).
The proper, scientific unit for mass is grams, and the scientific unit for weight is newtons.
Weight can change by where you are, like if you're on space you're lighter then when you're on earth. Mass does not change. No matter where you are, it stays the same.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight is the effect of the force of gravity on the mass of an object.
I do not know the answer.The difference between mass and capacity is that capacity is how much something can hold and mass is the weight of an object.
Mass is a measure of how much matter an object has. Weight is a measure of how strongly gravity pulls on that matter.
The mass of an object tells how much matter is present in the object. The weight tells how strongly gravity pulls it down.
Because the gravitational force between any two objects depends on the product of both their masses. The object's weight on earth depends on the object's mass and the earth's mass, whereas its weight on the moon depends on the object's mass and the moon's mass. Since the moon's mass is very different from the earth's mass, the object's weight is also different there.
Weight is how heavy and object is and Mass is the size of the object!
Mass is the amount of matter or molecules that a specific object is composed of. Weight is the measure of gravity's pull on you. Does this help answer your question?
The relations between mass and weight are that mass shows how much an object contains. This is about the same thing as weight - how much an object contains.
If you multiply an object's mass by the acceleration of gravity, g, you can determine its weight. If you know an object's weight and divide by g, you can determine its mass. g = 9.8 m/s2 or 32.2 ft/s2 (on Earth)
There is no difference in an astronaut's mass no matter where he or she might be. Mass is a constant, as opposed to weight which is dependent upon acceleration.None.Put simply. Mass is a measurement of how much matter is in an object, whereas weight is a measurement of how hard gravity is pulling on that object. As their is less gravity on the moon, your weight would be different, your mass would not.
Mass is the amount of "stuff" in an object or a region of space. Weight is the gravitational force between two masses. When you're talking about weight, the earth is usually one of the masses. Your mass never changes, regardless of where you are. Your weight does change, depending on what the other mass is.
The difference between weight and mass is that weight is a force and mass is a measure of the amount of matter within an object. To get mass from weight, divide by the gravitational constant. In this case, 9.8 meters per second2. 800/9.8 = 81.632 kilograms.
