No. Mass is a way of measuring how much matter an object contains, whereas weight measures how hard gravity is pulling on an object. While on earth, these are typically interchangeable. However, if you were to go to Mars, your mass would stay the same, but the weight will be different. This is because you still contain the same amount of matter, but the gravity's pull will be different because the Moon has a different gravitational pull than the Earth.
Mass is the total matter in an object,which cannot change unless there is loss of mass ,and weight is how much gravity pulls on it.
This is false. For most practical purposes, ie 'on planet Earth,' the terms 'mass' and 'weight' mean the same thing. Off-planet, mass just equals mass, as weight is a function of gravity.
Weight or mass can be given in:ouncespoundstons

Mass means the matter contains in a body but weight means the gravitational pull exerts on a body in weight. We consider both matter and gravitational pull. Comparing Mass and Weight Weight W = force F = mass m times acceleration of gravity g. On Earth the difference between weight and mass is more philosophical than practical. Mechanical quantities can be defined in terms of mass, length and time. The SI unit of mass is the kilogram. The weight of an object is the force of gravity on the object and may be defined as the mass times the acceleration of gravity, w = m times g. The SI unit of weight is the newton. Density is mass divided by volume.
Mass and volume aren't interchangeable.
Technically... not really. It would perhaps be more accurate to use the terms formula mass and molecular mass rather than formula weight and molecular weight. This because in physical terms, weight is a force while mass is a measure of the amount of substance in something.
No, they are not interchangeable.
Are the terms off-price and discounting interchangeable? Explain.
Feet are a measurement of length and distance while ounces measures weight and mass. The two are not interchangeable.
Mass and weight are perfectly scientific terms. It is not necessary to translate them into something more scientific.
Yes, volume and dynamics are interchangeable terms.
No they can not be used interchangeably
Percent of an objects mass is expressed in terms of its weight. Percent of an objects volume is expressed in terms of its size.
No
No
Polonium had no influence on Einstein determining that mass and energy were interchangeable.
