The mass will always stay the same but the gravitational pull towards the centre of the earth (weight) will change.

What is the weight and mass of a pencil in the moon?

On the Moon, the mass of a pencil would remain the same (since mass is an intrinsic property of an object), so it would still be the mass it has on Earth. However, the weight of the pencil would be about 1/6th of its weight on Earth due to the lower gravity on the Moon.


How would you calculate the mass of a pencil?

1 to 10 grams I would suggest. It rather depends on the pencil's measures.


How much is the mass of a pencil which is 3 grams of weight and 20 cm long?

3 grams.


How is measurment of weight different from measurement of mass?

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


What is the difference between weight and density?

Density is mass/(volume) while weigh is mass/(gravity). Examlpe: A ton of iron and a ton of straw weigh the same (a ton) but take up different amounts of space due to different densities.


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 is the most appropriate unit for expressing the weight of a pencil?

In my opinion, the best unit for measuring the weight of a pencil would be grams. :)* * * * *Grams may be used for measuring mass, but that is not the same as weight. The best unit is probably a milliNewton.


What is the mass of a new pencil?

This depends on the size, length, and type of pencil that you have. Different woods used to make the pencil have different densities, and so pencils that are the same size may have two completely different weights. Also, some pencils are cylinders while others are hexagonal prisms. This can affect the weight too. The only thing I can say is weigh it on a very accurate and precise scale!
