What else can I help you with?
How do you find the weight of an object using its mass?
Multiply the object's mass by the acceleration of gravity in the location where the object is presently. Example: Mass = 5 kilograms Acceleration of gravity on earth = 9.8 m/sec2 Weight = (5 x 9.8) = 49 newtons. Since the weight depends on the local gravity, the same mass has different weights in different places.
How is mass different from weight?
Mass is static. Weight depends on factors like gravity and should be expressed in force, not mass. Example: A person that weight 80KG (mass), weighs differently (weight) on different parts of the planet (because gravity is different on different parts of the planet). You can easily test it with a very high precision scale :)
State 3 differences between mass and weight?
1. Weight changes in different places but mass stays the same. 2. mass is the amount of material in an object and weight is the gravitational pull. 3. Weight is measured in newtons and mass is measured in grams
The weight of an object varies with the what?
The weight of an object varies with the gravitational force acting on it. On Earth, the weight of an object is determined by the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2) and the mass of the object. In different gravitational fields, such as on the Moon or Mars, the weight of the object would be different.
What is the weight of a mass 515 g?
On or near the Earth's surface, 515 g weighs 5.05 newtons (1pound 2.17ounces). It has a different weight in other places.
What are three diffent things between mass and weight?
1). Mass doesn't depend on what else is nearby, but weight does. 2). Mass doesn't change when it goes to different planets, but weight does. 3). Mass and weight are measured in different units and have different physical dimensions. 4). Weight is widely understood by nearly everybody, but mass isn't.
Are mass and weight 2 different examples of physical property?
Yes. Weight depends on gravity, so mass remains the same.
Why can't you use mass or volume alone to identify substance?
The reason you can not use just mass or volume to identify something is because they mean 2 different things for 2 different things. The mass is the weight of something, while the volume is the space something takes up.
How do you find the weight of an object using its mass?
Multiply the object's mass by the acceleration of gravity in the location where the object is presently. Example: Mass = 5 kilograms Acceleration of gravity on earth = 9.8 m/sec2 Weight = (5 x 9.8) = 49 newtons. Since the weight depends on the local gravity, the same mass has different weights in different places.
How do i convert weight to mass?
Weight=mass x acceleration due to gravity = mass(lbs) x 32.1 (ft/s^2) So, mass(lbs) = (weight)/(32.1)
What will be weight in newtons if you had mass of 77000 kg?
The weight of an object can be calculated by multiplying the mass by the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2). Therefore, for a mass of 77000 kg, the weight would be 77000 kg * 9.81 m/s^2 = 755670 N.
What is the mass of a person that weighs 500 Newtons?
That would depend on where the person is at. Different celestial bodies have different accelerations due to gravity, which affects the weight. If the assumption is that the person is on Earth, where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m s-2: Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity 500 Newtons = mass x 9.81 m s-2 mass = 500 / 9.81 = 51 kilograms Note that mass is constant, no matter where the object in question is. Weight, however, depends on the location of the object.
How is mass different from weight?

How do you calculate weight from mass?
Weight = Mass X (acceleration due to gravity), which on Earth is 9.8m/s^2.

What is the basic SI unit of weight?
The Newton - weight is measured in force. mass*gravity = weight mass (kg) gravity (m/s^2) weight in (N)
