Compare the changes in the weight of a ball with the changes in the balls mass as the height of the ball above earths surface increases?
Mass and Weight The gravitational force Earth exerts on an object is the weight of the object. Because weight is a force, it is measured in newtons. Weight is not the same as mass. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains, and is measured in kilograms. Even if the mass of an object doesn't change, its weight will change if its distance from Earth changes
Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the object weight is different?
The reason is because the mass is like the volume and the weight is like how heavy an object is.
Does mass of an object change depending on where it is?
No, the mass of an object is independent of where it is. The mass does not change. However, the weight (that is the product of mass and gravity acceleration) changes by change of the gravity. For example, the gravity on the moon is 1/6th that on earth. so, the object weight on the moon is 1/6th the same object weight on earth.
Weight and mass relationship?
An object's mass is the quantity of matter that comprises it ... the total protons, neutrons, electrons, lint, moisture, dirt, wood-chips, and anything else of which the object is composed. It belongs to the object, and doesn't depend on where the object is or in what position it is, etc. An object's weight is the gravitational force between the object and any other mass. That force depends on both the object's mass and the other mass, and also on how far apart they are. An object's weight is its mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity in the place where the object is located at the moment ... so it can change. For example, your weight would be FW=(your mass in kg)*(9.80m/s2) because 9.80m/s2 is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth.
What would be the effect on the mass and the weight of an object if the object were taken to to a planet with twice the gravity of earth?
The weight would double, while the mass stayed the same.
Why is there a difference in an object's weight on Earth and on the Moon?
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.
What does an object have to have for weight to act on it?
An object must have mass for there to be weight. There also must be another mass (such as Earth) that exerts a gravitational pull on the object for there to be weight.

Does an object on earth have the same mass as it does on earth?
Yes. The mass of an object is always the same, but the weight of an object depends on the force of gravity on it.
How do you change an object's mass on earth to its mass on the moon?
The object's mass is the same wherever it is. Mass doesn't change. What changes is the object's weight.The weight depends on what other mass happens to be nearby.When you know the object's weight on earth, multiply that by 0.1633 to find its weight on the moon.If you don't need it that close, it might be easier to just divide the earth weight by 6.
What is the relationship between mass of an object on earth and its weight?
W=mgon earth, weight is approximately 10 times the mass of the object.Weight of an object= mass of object x acceleration due to gravitywhere g on earth ~ 10 ms-2 (=9.81 ms-2 )and mass/ kilograms
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.
What factors effect the weight of an object on earth?
Only the object's mass.

If an object has a mass of 36,500 g on Earth, what is its weight?
Weight is given by the formula, W=mg W is the weight of the object in newtons m is the mass of the object in kilograms
