The regulations governing the various types of aircraft are based on weight categories. Different categories have different performance and equipment requirements. As a general rule, heavier categories of aircraft would be expected to have more stringent requirements with respect to performance and safety equipment, presumably because they would be more likely to be used in commercial aviation. Hope that helps.
A tank is typically heavier than an airplane. Tanks are military vehicles designed for combat, and they are armored and heavily equipped with weapons. Airplanes are designed for flight, and their weight can vary depending on the type and size of the aircraft.

No, eggs do not get heavier. The weight of an egg is determined by the amount of material it contains, and this does not change after it has been laid.
Gold has a heavier atomic weight than oxygen. Gold's atomic weight is approximately 197, while oxygen's atomic weight is around 16.
No, lead is heavier than platinum. Lead has a higher density and atomic weight compared to platinum.
The weight of an aircraft counteracts the lift produced by an aircraft. The heavier an aircraft weighs the greater the lift needed to get off the ground.
Not necessarily. The aircraft with better power to weight ratio will fly fastest.

Aluminum. For some aircraft, a heavier but much stronger metal called titanium is used.
To figure out the weight of yarn, you can use a scale to measure the weight in grams or ounces. Yarn weight is typically categorized into different categories such as lace, fingering, sport, worsted, and bulky, which correspond to different thicknesses and weights of yarn. You can also refer to the yarn label or manufacturer's information for the weight and yardage of the yarn.
Her weight grows heavier and heavier as she eats more and more pie
The Boeing 737 is categorized as a Large Aircraft. The next category up is called a Heavy Aircraft and that category starts at 300,000 pounds (maximum certificated gross takeoff weight). A special "Heavy" category starting around 255,000 pounds was created for the Boeing 757 due to it's propensity to generate wake turbulence.
Yes, trapped fuel is included in the basic weight of an aircraft because it represents the weight of fuel that cannot be used for flight. This weight is accounted for in the aircraft's operating weight calculations.
In regards to weight, since the wing is the main lifting body, heavier aircraft will require a larger wing with greater wing area. In regards to speed, a larger wing will of course produce more aerodynamic drag which tends to slow the aircraft down. Obviously large heavy aircraft must have a correspondingly large amount of thrust to overcome this.
If you mean "weight categories" there are 17.
Weight affects lift because as an object gets heavier, it requires more lift force to counteract gravity and stay airborne. This means that a heavier object will need more thrust or a larger wing surface area to generate enough lift to support its weight. Additionally, weight can impact the wing loading and stall speed of an aircraft.
This depends on various factors, including the type of aircraft being flown and its Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW), the aircraft's configuration, density of the air (more weight can be taken during the winter season versus summer due to the surface cold air being more dense), runway length versus needed roll to obtain lift on departure, runway length at landing point (Heavier the aircraft on landing, the greater the stopping distance needed), and how the weight is distributed throughout the aircraft.
