Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that object. Mass remains constant regardless of the gravitational field, whereas weight can vary depending on the strength of gravity. In scientific contexts, mass is preferred because it is an intrinsic property of an object, whereas weight depends on the environment.
Weight is how gravity is affecting the mass of an object. While mass stays the same no matter where it is, the weight of an object changes depending on how strong the gravity is where the object is. For example, you weigh less on the moon than you do on earth because earth is much bigger than the moon is, therefore the more gravity it has. :-D :O ;)
Yes, mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and is constant regardless of location or gravitational influence. Weight, on the other hand, depends on the gravitational force acting on the object, so it can change based on the location in the universe.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity acting on that object. Mass remains constant regardless of location, while weight can change depending on the gravitational pull of a particular location.
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.
The weight of an object of mass 2m is 2mg. Weight is directly proportional to mass, so if you double the mass, you double the weight.
Yes, and you can do even better than that.Weight IS the gravitational force on a mass.
Because is mass is more accurate than weight.
Well mass is different from weight in one major way. Mass is how easily something can lift more than weight being how heavy an object is. For example a balloon has mass, but a person carries weight.
The mass is less than 1 kg.
Mass is the amount of matter existing in your body and weight due to gravity, a body's weight is different on earth than to when on moon.
The mass of an object does not change , but its weight can vary.
Mass is the amount of matter. Weight had to do with gravity. Weitht is the force of gravity on mass. Some times we use gravity to measure mass such as a spring scale. That does not mean that gravity and mass are the same thing.

Technically... not really. It would perhaps be more accurate to use the terms formula mass and molecular mass rather than formula weight and molecular weight. This because in physical terms, weight is a force while mass is a measure of the amount of substance in something.
With a scale. Mass equals weight.
Scientists use both; but normally mass is used somewhat more than weight.
