Weight is caused by being pulled down by a planet, therefore it changes from planet to planet. When in space we orbit a planet and the acceleration of the orbit counter-acts the weight - resulting in weightlessness.
Weight is a measure of gravity's pull against some object. No a brick will not weigh the same on earth as in space or on the moon. It will, however, have the same mass.also weight and mass IS DIFFERENT weight is a measure of gravity pull against objects mass basicly mean how many atoms
You would weigh nothing. You still have mass, but mass is different than weight. Ever wonder why they say you are "weightless" in space? It's because of that: you would weigh nothing in space.
You would weigh less, but your mass would stay the same. Weight is a result of gravity, mass is an inherent property of matter.
Yes, a gallon of water has the same mass in space as it does on Earth. However, because weight is a force dependent on gravity, the weight of the water would be different in space compared to on Earth due to the difference in gravitational pull.

Is your question "what do you weigh different objects on in space...", or "why would you attempt to weigh an object in space"...?

Nothing - there is no force acting on it - it's mass stays the same and would be what it is on earth
In a micro gravity, if the mass of each are equal they would 'weigh' the same.
it benefits everyone because we can learn more about space
they would weigh the same everywhere
yes
Uh...just don't go too near them or they'll get uncomfortable. Just the same way you respect everyone else's personal space.
general space is the space that everyone shares
