Answer 1

Answer:

Mass:-

1. Mass is a property of matter. The mass of an object is same everywhere.

2. Mass can never be zero.

3. Mass doesn't change according to the location.

4. Mass is a scalar quantity. It has magnitude.

5. Mass may be measured using an ordinary balance.

6. Mass, it is usually measured in grams and kilograms.

Weight:-

1. Weight depends on the effect of gravity. Weight increases or decreases with higher or lower gravity.

2. Weight can be zero if no gravity acts upon an object, as in space.

3. Weight varies according to the location.

4. Weight is a vector quantity. It has magnitude and is directed towards the centre of the earth or other gravity well.

5. Weight is measured using a spring balance.

6. Weight, often is measured in newton[N] which is a unit of force.
