Mass will always remain constant. Mass depends on how much stuff there is.

Also, we measure Mass in kilograms (Kg) but we measure weight in Newtons, (N).

Weight, always depends on where you are. The weight of an object will be different on Earth, compared to Mars, or just space.

The formula for the weight of an object is:

F=ma where 'F' is the weight, 'm' is the mass, and 'a' is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet in question.

Ex.) My mass is 75.0 Kg, what is my weight? (the acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.81)

F=ma

F=75.0 kg * 9.81 N/Kg

F=736 N

How can you differentiate between mass and weight?

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 gravitational pull of a particular location.


What is theUnit to measure mass?

The gram. Also in use in the English (US) System is the pound.*for weight or force exerted by these masses due to gravity the Newton or the Poundal is used to differentiate mass and weight. {Though at the surface of the earth the mass and weight are indistinguishable.}


What is the differentiate between mass and weight?

Answer: MASS~is the amount of matter an object possesses. It is measured in kg/g WEIGHT~is the amount of gravity an object possesses. It is measured in newtons (N) Answer: Mass can be understood by an object's inertia - roughly speaking, how much force it takes to speed it up or slow it down. On Earth, the two are proportional (the weight of an object in newtons is 9.8 times the mass in kilograms), but with more or less gravity - e.g., on the Moon - the same mass will have a different weight.

If the weight of an object of mass m is mg then the weight of an object of mass 2m is?

The weight of an object of mass 2m is 2mg. Weight is directly proportional to mass, so if you double the mass, you double the weight.


Is mass and weight a force?
