Question

difference between mass and weight​

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. Theweight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

Answer 2

Answer

Mass

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

Mass can never be zero .

Mass does not change according to location .

Mass may be measured using an ordinary balance .

Unit : kilogram (kg)

Weight

Weight depends on the effect of gravity . Weight varies according to location .

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

Weight increases or decreases with higher or lower gravity .

Weight is measured using a spring balance .

W = mg

Unit : Newton (N) .
