Difference between Mass and Weight
(It is recommended to write this in tabular form)
MASS
1) It is the amount of matter contained in a body.
2) It is a scaler quantity.
3) It's S.I unit is kg.
4) It is constant everywhere in the universe.
5) Mass of a body can never be zero.
6) It is measured by a beam balance.
WEIGHT
1) It is the force exerted by the Earth on a body.
2) It is a vector quantity.
3) It's S.I unit Newton.
4) It is not constant everywhere and changes with the change in acceleration due to gravity.
5) Weight of a body can be zero.
6) It is measured by a spring balance.
