The weight of one kilogram of mass is the least on Mercury. This is because Mercury has a lower gravitational pull compared to other planets in the solar system, resulting in a smaller weight for the same mass. While weight varies with gravity, the mass remains constant at one kilogram.
What else can I help you with?
In the metric system what is weight measured in?
Weight is measured in kilograms. There are 1000 grams in 1 kilogram, and 1000 kilograms in 1 tonne.
What is the standard unit of measurement for weight?
grams Correction: The gram is a unit of mass, not weight. The kilogram, not the gram, is the base unit of mass. The SI unit for weight is the newton, but it's a derived unit calculated using mass and gravitational pull.
What replaces the si unit pound to?
kilogram is the SI unit for mass and weight, as said it measures the weight or mass.
What is the weight on the planet?
The weight of an object on a planet depends on the planet's gravity and the mass of the object. The formula to calculate weight is Weight = Mass x Gravity. So, weight on a planet will be different from the weight on Earth depending on the planet's gravity.
If your weight changes from planet to planet but does your mass change to?
No, your mass does not change from planet to planet; it remains constant regardless of location. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass. Since different planets have different gravitational forces, your weight will vary depending on the planet, but your mass will stay the same.
What is the kilogram the measure for?
Weight or mass.
Is the weight of a television set measured in kilogram?
No. Kilogram is a unit of mass, not of weight.
What is 1kilogram on the moon?
A kilogram (mass) on the moon is still a kilogram (mass)A kilogram (referred to as its weight) is about 1/6 of it's Earth weight or 160 g (approx)Aside: In common usage we talk about an object having a weight, not a mass (e.g. Your driver's license states your weight). In science a kilogram is a unit of mass. Weight is what we perceive when we try to lift that mass - it is the force of gravity pulling the kilogram mass to the Earth. It gets a bit confusing when you are at Earth's surface because a the kilogram mass has a numerically kilogram of force (usually referred to as weight) attracting it downwards.
Is a kilogram the weight of a dime?
1 kilogram is the mass of about 441dimes.
What is the measurement used for mass and weight?
The SI unit of mass is the kilogram. Actually, while the SI unit of mass is the kilogram, mass and weight are different; weight is ALWAYS measured in NEWTONS (n)!
What is the metric unit for weight?
Newtons (symbol: N).Do not confuse weight with mass (the unit of mass is the kilogram). Weight is the downward force exerted by a mass because of the pull of gravity.The unit of weight is Kg*m/s2Metric unit for mass is kilograms (kg), however weight is a different measurement defined as force that will act on the object due gravity of a given planet (so it measures in Newtons, N). On Earth your weight is almost the same as your mass (and that is not a coincidence) but on the other planet your mass will remain the same (say 70kg) while your weigh may change dramatically (depending on the gravity of the planet). In the free fall state your weight is zero.
What is the relationship between an objects mass and weight?
weight = mass x gravity. On the surface of planet Earth, gravity is about 9.8 in SI units (9.8 meters/second2, equivalent to 9.8 newton/kilogram).
What is the relationship between mass and weight of an object?
weight = mass x gravity. On the surface of planet Earth, gravity is about 9.8 in SI units (9.8 meters/second2, equivalent to 9.8 newton/kilogram).
How do you change weight to mass?
To change weight to mass, you need to divide the weight by the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2 on Earth). Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight takes into account the force of gravity acting on that mass.
How muck does a kilogram weigh?
A kilogram is a unit of mass, not weight. In Earth's standard gravity, a kilogram mass weighs about 9.8 Newtons.
Liter is to volume as kilogram is to?
Mass. NOT weight.
Is a kilogram used as a measurement in mass and weight?
No. Kilogram is a unit of mass only. Weight is measured in units of force; the SI unit for force is the Newton.
