What are the differences and the similarities between mass and weight?
Every object has MASS. Its weight is dependent on the Gravitational Field it is immersed in. Weight changes based on position in the Gravitational Field. MASS is constant as long as the object stays intact.
How does weight affect gravity?
Weight is the force generated by mass when it is in a gravitational field. When a body is outside of a gravitational field, it is weightless but it still has mass.So gravity doesn't exactly affect weight; gravity causes mass to have weight.
Is your weight a property of mechanical equilibrium?
Your weight is the gravitational attraction force between you and the Earth and not a property of mechanical equilibrium. Mechanical equilibrium is a state in which a momentum coordinate of a particle, rigid body, or dynamical system is conserved.
What does gravity have to do with weight?
weight is equal to mass times by gravity ie W=mg this means that gravitational field strength, multiplied by the amount of matter that something is made up of (ie, 50kg, 10g, etc) is it's weight. so, you would weigh less on the moon, because the gravitational field strength is less, though your mass would be the same.... represent an example of cause and effect.
Do weight require a support fore and gravity?
Weight is a force exerted by gravity on an object due to its mass. Without gravity, weight would not exist. However, weight does not require support from another force to exist; it is an inherent property of an object in a gravitational field.
What is mass responsible for?
Mass is the property of a body that causes it to have weight in a gravitational field.
What does weight take into account witch mass does not?
Weight takes into account the gravitational field strength whereas mass is independent of the gravitational field strength.
What is the scientific meaning of weight?
Weight is actually force in a fixed setting. In the context of a relatively large and uniform gravitational field (such as being on the surface of the planet), weight is the force along the line between the center of the gravitational field and the center of the object. That is, the weight of an object in such a gravitational field is the strength of that field multiplied by the mass of the object.
What are the differences and the similarities between mass and weight?
Every object has MASS. Its weight is dependent on the Gravitational Field it is immersed in. Weight changes based on position in the Gravitational Field. MASS is constant as long as the object stays intact.
What is a mass of a rubber?
The mass of any object is its attraction by gravity. If the ball is attracted by gravity, and the attraction is measured by scales, we might say that the ball has a weight of five kilograms, or a mass of five kilograms. We can put it another way by saying that mass is the property of a body that causes it to have weight in a gravitational field.
How does weight affect gravity?
Weight is the force generated by mass when it is in a gravitational field. When a body is outside of a gravitational field, it is weightless but it still has mass.So gravity doesn't exactly affect weight; gravity causes mass to have weight.
What is gravity and mass?
Mass is the amount of matter a body has. Gravity is a pulling force that pulls the object towards the core of the body. The weight of a body depends on the mass; gravity causes weight. Weight is a downwards force towards the core of the body that produces a gravitational field (e.g. Earth). The relation between the mass, the weight and the gravitational field strength is: W = m.g - where W is the weight of the object, m is the mass of the object and g is the gravitational field strength of the body (it is roughly about 10N/kg on Earth)

Is there any meaning of weight of earth?
Yes and no. The earth has mass and therefore weight, and is inside a gravitational field (several actually) but to "pick it up" would mean pulling it away from the sun, as bizarre as that seems. Inertia would be harder to overcome than gravity I imagine. The mass of the earth is a far more useful and meaningful concept.
How does the gravitational pull determines the body weight?
Weight is a measurement of the downward force experienced by a mass in a gravity field. The stronger the field the greater the weight.
Do weight require a support fore and gravity?
