Weight is a measure of the gravitational force between two objects (normally the Earth and whatever it is we're weighing). It is directly proportional to mass, so yes: two objects of different mass will have different weights when measured under the same conditions.
(Scientists like mass rather than weight because mass doesn't change with location. A 1 kg mass on Earth will still be 1 kg on the Moon or Mars, though its weight there will be less.)
What else can I help you with?
Changing the mass or volume of an object changes what?
Changing the mass or volume of an object changes its density. Density is defined as the mass of an object divided by its volume, so if either the mass or volume changes, the density will change accordingly.
If you change the mass of a certain object you also change its what?
If you change the mass of an object, you also change its weight. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, and it is directly proportional to the mass of the object.
How can you change the weight of an object?
You can change the weight of an object by altering its mass or the force acting on it. Increasing the mass of the object will increase its weight, while decreasing the force acting on it will decrease its weight.
Why does changing shape of an object dose not change the density?
Density is a property that depends on the mass and volume of the object, not its shape. Changing the shape of an object does not alter the amount of mass or volume it contains, so the density remains the same.
How can an objects weight change if its mass does not?
Weight is affected by gravity, while mass does not. On Earth mass and weight are the same, yet on the moon your weight could be 1/6 of its original, while your mass would stay the same no matter where you go.
How can you change weight and not the mass?
There is really only 1 way you can change the weight of an object without changing the mass. You must change gravity.
Does the mass of something change if you change it shape?
No. Mass is independent of shape. The mass, as measured by weight, will be the same. If the material is compressible and you change the volume as a result of changing the shape, the density will change although the mass will not.
Does changing the volume of water change the mass of 1 cm3 of water?
No. It may change its weight if weighed at varying depths.
Changing the mass or volume of an object changes what?
Changing the mass or volume of an object changes its density. Density is defined as the mass of an object divided by its volume, so if either the mass or volume changes, the density will change accordingly.
Will your and mass or weight change When you travel to Neptune?
Your mass will not but your weight will.
Does mass or weight change?
Weight changes but, ordinarily, mass doesn't.
Will the weight of an object change if it changes it state?
No. The mass of an object doesn't change (Law of Conservation of Mass), therefore its weight won't change either (weight = mass x gravity).
Does changing the mass of water change the mass of 1 cm3 of water?
No
What factors can effect body mass?
Weight difference or changing
Does your mass change on the planets?
Your mass stays the same no matter where you are. Your weight will change.
Why will a person's mass never change whether they are on earth or on the moon?
Because mass is not the same as weight. Weight is mass times gravity so your weight will change if you are on the earth or moon but your mass will stay the same.
If you change the mass of a certain object you also change its what?
If you change the mass of an object, you also change its weight. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, and it is directly proportional to the mass of the object.
