74 kg of mass weighs 120.1 newtons (27 pounds) on the moon, and the same 74 kg weighs 726 newtons (163 pounds) on Earth.

How would you find the mass of an object on earth?
Simple. Weigh it
Astronauts weight the same as they would on other planets?
They would have the same mass, however they would weigh different amounts. Mass is an object's property. Weight depends on the surrounding gravity.
Why does a bigger object weigh more?
Becaude it has more mass
Will an object weigh less when it is on a planet close to the sun?
The weight of an object depends on the mass of the object and the mass of the planet. How close the Sun is doesn't really factor into things.
Would you weigh more on a gaseous planet or terrestrial planet?
Based on the fact that the gaseous planets in the solar system have much greater mass than terrestrial planets, you would weigh more as weight depends on gravitational pull, which is increased based on the mass of the object.
How would you find the mass of an object on earth?
Simple. Weigh it
What You weigh the mass of an object you then cut the object in two halfs and weigh the total mass of the two halves is what to the mass of the original object?
it is equal to the mass of the original object
How would you find the mass of an object by math?
-- Measure the force of attraction between the object and the earth. ("WEIGH" the object.)-- Divide the force by the acceleration of gravity.-- The answer is the mass of the object.
When an object is submerged will it weigh less or have less mass?
Objects under water seem to weigh less but they have the same mass as they would out of water.
You are 157cm tall you weigh 74kg am i over weight?
Your body-mass index would be 30, so definitely yes unless you are a very heavily muscled person. It needs to be 18-24 for people with normal builds.
Whats the units of weight and mass?
The units used for weight and mass are the same but there is a subtle difference in the meaning.Take for instance an amount of substance that has a mass of 1kg. On earth it would weigh 1 kg. Taking the same object into space it would weigh nothing but would still have a mass of 1 kg. This is called inertial mass. Taking the object to the moon and it would still have a mass of 1 kg but would weigh about 1/6 of a kg. Weight is dependant on the gravitational field where the object is. This is a simplified explanation

How do you get the mass of the object?
An easy way to do that is to weigh the object. In principle, the mass can be derived from the weight.
What effect does gravity have on the mass of an object?
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.
What determines the mass of an objects?
The only "weigh" to determine the mass of an object is to compare it with the mass of a known object. The mass of an object is determined by force and acceleration.
How do you weigh an object that is a mass of 1 kilogram?
on a scale
What is the exerted weight of an object?
The weight of an object is the force it exerts due to its mass and gravitational pull. On earth, a 1 kg object would 'weigh' 9.8 Newtons.
