Answer:
Weight is proportional to mass but they are fundamentally different. Mass is a scalar quantity that does not change. Weight is a vector and it changes under the change of gravitational acceleration. Mass of a physical object can never be zero although its weight can.An object weighs differently on the Earth and the Moon but its mass remains the same. For example, the weight of an object of mass 120 kg is 1200 N on the Earth. However, its weight on the Moon is 200 N.
