Is an objects weight is less than its mass?
An object's weight is not the same as its mass. Weight is the result of the gravitational force acting on an object, while mass is the amount of matter in the object. Since weight depends on the gravitational pull and mass does not, the weight of an object can vary depending on where it is located in the universe.
Compare and contrast mass and weight?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, measured in kilograms, and is constant regardless of location. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass, measured in newtons, and can change depending on the gravitational pull of the location. While mass remains constant, weight can vary depending on the gravitational field strength.
Does air have mass using the scientific method answer?
Yes, air does have mass. This can be determined through experiments that involve measuring the weight of a container filled with air and then vacuuming out the air to compare the weight difference. This is a scientific method used to demonstrate that air has mass.
How do you identify mass?
Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in an object. It can be identified by using a balance scale to compare the object's mass to a known mass standard. The unit of mass is typically measured in grams or kilograms.
How does the weight of a 40 kilogram boy compare to the weight of a 20 kilogram boy?
The 40 kg boy weighs twice as much as the 20 kg boy because weight is directly proportional to mass.
How do we use weight?
Usually we do not. We use mass, but wrongly call it weight. You compare the masses of people, you buy fruit and vegetables, or meat by their weight and not mass, etc.
How does a spring balance measure the mass of an object?
A spring device can only measure an object's weight. In order to find its mass, you then have to either compare its weight with the weight of a known mass, or else use the value of gravitational acceleration to calculate the mass from the weight.
How many meter in 30 ton?
You cannot compare a length with a weight or mass.
Why is your weight on earth different from out mass on the moon?
You can't compare WEIGHT with MASS - those two are used to measure quite different things. It doesn't make sense to say that they are the same, or that they are different. You can only compare mass with mass, or weight with weight.
Is mass directly propertional to weight?
Yes. Weight is equal to mass times gravity, so if you keep gravity constant (for example, measure different masses on planet Earth), weight is indeed proportional to mass. But if you compare measures with different gravity, you see that weight not only depends on the mass.
Is an objects weight is less than its mass?
An object's weight is not the same as its mass. Weight is the result of the gravitational force acting on an object, while mass is the amount of matter in the object. Since weight depends on the gravitational pull and mass does not, the weight of an object can vary depending on where it is located in the universe.
Could the mass of a lighter object be more than that of a heavier object?
No, unless you compare objects on different planets. Weight = mass x gravity, so if gravity remains constant, more mass means more weight.

How does Saturn mass compare to the earth mass?
Yes. Mass is constant. However, you would weigh less on Mars.
How would the weight and mass of the rocks on earth compare to measurements the astronaut made on the moon?
look at ur balls and cry
