Is the mass of body the same thing as the weight?
No, mass and weight are not the same thing. Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object, and it remains constant regardless of the location. Weight, on the other hand, is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, so it can vary depending on the strength of gravity.
Is there a difference between weight and mass, or are they the same thing?
Weight and mass are not the same thing. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that object. Mass is a measure of inertia, while weight is a measure of the gravitational force pulling on an object.
Does gravity have the same effect on weight as it does on mass?
Gravity affects weight, which is the force exerted on an object due to gravity pulling it towards a center of mass, while mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight depends on both the object's mass and the strength of the gravitational field it is in, following the formula weight = mass x gravity.
Does mass and weight mean the same thing What does mass and weight in similar?
Mass and weight are similar because they are directly proportional to one another. Mass is the measure of matter within an object, and weight is the force with which gravity pulls down on that mass. If the mass is great, the force pulling on it is great.
How do you find the mass of an animal?
Basically by weighing it. Although mass is not the same as weight, if you know the weight and the gravity, you can calculate the mass.Basically by weighing it.

Do mass and weight mean the same thing?
No
The mass of a human in kilograms?
And what particular human are you referring to? Also, I am a bit rusty about this, are weight and mass the same thing?
Does gravity have the same effect on weight as it does on mass?
Gravity affects weight, which is the force exerted on an object due to gravity pulling it towards a center of mass, while mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight depends on both the object's mass and the strength of the gravitational field it is in, following the formula weight = mass x gravity.
How the weight and the mass will change if a planet has gravity half as strong as Earth?
Mass remains the same; weight will be one half that of the same mass on earth.
How are mass and weight the same?
Mass and weight are related but not the same. 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 is constant, while weight can change depending on the strength of gravity. They are proportional to each other, as weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity.
Do all rocks weigh the same if they have a different mass but the same weight?
Do all rocks weigh the same if they have a different mass but the same weight? Let's look at the question without one bit of it..... "Do all rocks weigh the same if they have ......... .... ... the same weight?" If things are the same weight, then they weigh the same.
What is a person's mass in outer space?
Zero is not correct. Your weight may be zero in parts of space, but not in others. Weight, however, is a different thing altogether to mass and it is important not to confuse the two. Mass is the amount of matter in an object and this remains the same.
What two thing does weight depend on?
Weight depends on an object's mass and the acceleration due to gravity.
Is mass the same meaning as size?
No; in common language, mass means something closer to weight. There is a relationship to size in the sense that a larger piece of something has more mass than a smaller piece of the same thing. But while weight is a measurement that depends on the local force of gravity, mass is a characteristic inherent in matter regardless of the strength of gravity. It relates to the acceleration acquired when a force is applied.
Between mass and weight which is dependent on the other?
Weight is dependent on mass. Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity, and it is directly proportional to an object's mass. Mass, on the other hand, remains constant regardless of location in the universe.
What is the diffrerence between mass and weight?
Mass is constant. You have the same amount of mass wherever you are in the Universe. Weight is the affect of gravity acting on your mass. So you weigh 1/6th as much on the Moon because there is less gravity there but you have the same amount of mass as you do on Earth.
What is the difference between atomic weight and atomic mass and molar mass and molecular weight?
The atomic mass is the mass of an atom at rest. This refers to one atom, and is typically measured in so-called atomic mass units, and describes a single isotope of that element. The atomic weight is the abundance-weighted average mass of an element (an average mass of all the isotopes that exist for that element, weighted by how abundant each isotope is in nature). Atomic weight is commonly reported in atomic mass units, as well as in grams per mole. The molar mass is the mass of one mole of something, and can refer to both a single element as well as molecules and other compounds. The molecular weight is essentially the same thing as the molar mass except that, as the name implies, it refers to molecules rather than just elements. The molar mass and molecular weight is typically given in units of grams per mole.The molecular weight of a compound is found by adding the atomic weights of all of the atoms in the compound. Water, for example, has a molecular weight of 18.0152 grams/mole, as there are two hydrogen atoms that each have an atomic weight of 1.00079 g/mole and one oxygen atom with an atomic weight 15.9994 grams/mole.
