Mass is a widely used findamental property that is not understood at all.

It is used widely when dealing with kinematic and static mechanics problems among other things.

A similar proprty known as inertia is sometimes used instead.

Mass is considered to be the amount of matter in an object, but we today know that mass changes with velocity (when an object gets near lightspeed, his mass gets near infinite), therefore mass is the amount of resistance of an object to change in velocity.
