Gravity between two objects will form a mutually attractive force on both objects, proportional to the product of both masses. Both objects will accelerate toward each other. The force on both objects is the same magnitude, but in opposite directions (it is toward the other object). The amount of acceleration (call it a) is equal to the force divided by the mass of that object. So if one object is very massive (like the Earth, for example) its acceleration will be very small.
a larger mass. The force of gravity is directly proportional to the mass of an object. Therefore, the greater the mass, the greater the gravitational force acting on the object.
True. Mass and weight are related through the effect gravity has on an object. Mass represents the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that object. Weight is directly proportional to mass and the acceleration due to gravity.
Gravity affects mass by influencing the weight of an object. The mass of an object remains constant regardless of the gravitational force acting upon it, but its weight can change depending on the strength of gravity. As gravity increases, the weight of an object will also increase, but its mass will remain the same.

More gravity = more weight. Gravity will hardly change the mass of an object (except for effects due to the Theory of Relativity, which are usually insignificant).
Gravity has no effect on the mass of an object. However, an object's weight is the measurement of gravitational force on the object. The gravitational force on the moon for example is ~ 1/6 of that on Earth. A 300 kg object would weigh 3000N (Newtons) on the Earth but only weigh 500 N on the Moon but its mass would still be 300 kg on the Moon and on the Earth.
On earth, the mass of an object has no effect whatsoever on its acceleration due to the force of gravity. All objects fall with the same acceleration, regardless of their mass. Any observed difference is due entirely to air resistance.
Gravity is what gives an object weight. The force of gravity pulls objects towards the center of the Earth, giving them a weight relative to their mass. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.
the mass would stay the same no matter where you are and the weight is the force of gravity on an object, so depending on the gravity your weight would change
the mass would stay the same no matter where you are and the weight is the force of gravity on an object, so depending on the gravity your weight would change
Gravity has no effect on the mass of an object as everything whatever the weight experiencing the same force of gravity (9.8N). However an objects weight is the gravitational force on the object.
The more mass an object has, the more gravity acts on it. Mass actually is known to affect weight because they both depend on each other. =============================== HONK! Beulah the Buzzer has an objection to raise. Mass does not depend on weight. "Weight" is the name we give to the gravitational force acting on a mass.
