Use the formula:

weight = mass x gravity

Close to Earth's surface, gravity is approximately 9.8 newton/kilogram.

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.

How to find out weight of the person in the moon if we know the mass in the earth?

weight= mass x gravitational acceleration. thus if you know the mass and knew that the gravitational acceleration of the moon is 1/6 of that of the earth it is an easy calculation to get the objects lunar weight.


Why is mass and weight necessary to find density?

the definition of density is the amount of mass contained in a set volumeto find density one must know mass and volume the equation is as follows: density= mass/volume hence, weight is not necessary to find density


To find the pressure that the solid exerts on something what do you need to know about the solid?

You need to know the mass of the solid.


How do you find the mass of an object given the weight and volume?

If you know the force of gravity then mass = weight/gravitational force. If you don't then you cannot. Knowing the volume is useless.


How you could find the mass and weight of an object on earth and the mass and weight of the same object on the moon?

Use a balance with standard masses to find the mass. You need only find the mass at one of the two locations. Find the weight using a spring balance.


How do you find the mass of a snake?

You weight it.


How do you change an object's mass on earth to its mass on the moon?

The object's mass is the same wherever it is. Mass doesn't change. What changes is the object's weight.The weight depends on what other mass happens to be nearby.When you know the object's weight on earth, multiply that by 0.1633 to find its weight on the moon.If you don't need it that close, it might be easier to just divide the earth weight by 6.


Why must you find the mass of a container holding a liquid before you find the density of a liquid?

What you really need to know is the mass of the liquid. You'll most likely measure it by weighing the liquid when it's in the container. The weight you measure will include the weight of the container, and you'll have to subtract that away in order to know


How do you find the force?

That depends what information you know. One common formula is F=ma (force = mass x acceleration). Another formula is weight = mass x gravity (note that the weight is a force).


What do you need to use to find the mass of the ring?

You will need a pair of scales and some standard mass measures (weights).


How do you find the mass of an object If the mass of the beaker is 15grams and the total weight is 30.100grams?

Subtract the mass of the beaker from the total weight.
