Does the mass of an object affect its weight after its shape has been altered?

The mass always affects the weight. But the same mass always hasthe same weight, regardless of its shape.-- Notice that there is no 'shape' term in the formula for weight:Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) -- A 50kg woman and a 50kg sack of potatoes have the same weight,even though one of the objects has a better shape.


How is measurment of weight different from measurement of mass?

Mass is the mass, weight is mass with gravity acting upon it


Does the mass of something change if you change it shape?

No. Mass is independent of shape. The mass, as measured by weight, will be the same. If the material is compressible and you change the volume as a result of changing the shape, the density will change although the mass will not.


Is The weight of a substance is defined as its mass divided by its volume.?

weight is different in different gavities but mass is not, volume is not involved


Why is weight different from mass?

Well mass is different from weight in one major way. Mass is how easily something can lift more than weight being how heavy an object is. For example a balloon has mass, but a person carries weight.


Is weight stronger mass?

Weight and mass are fundamentally different things, and they are measured in different units (newton, versus kilograms). Weight is caused by mass, but it also depends on gravity. The formula is: weight = gravity x mass Mass also causes inertia.


How is mass and weight are different?

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. Mass remains constant regardless of location, while weight can change depending on the strength of gravity.


When are mass and weight the same?

Mass and weight are different notions in a correct physics terminology.


What should be the average weight of a 13 year old girl?

it depends on how tall you are: if you are short around 80 tall 100 every body is different, so depending on the muscle mass, hight, shape, and bone mass your weight range can be very different to the person next to you


What are three diffent things between mass and weight?

1). Mass doesn't depend on what else is nearby, but weight does. 2). Mass doesn't change when it goes to different planets, but weight does. 3). Mass and weight are measured in different units and have different physical dimensions. 4). Weight is widely understood by nearly everybody, but mass isn't.


How is weight from mass?

They are different because mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object, weight is the quantity of heaviness.


What's the deference from weight?

Weight is different from mass because it is a a scalar quantity whereas mass is a vector.
