Question

differentiate mass and weight​

Answer 1

Answer:

mass is a amount of matter in a material.

weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts on mass.....

Answer 2

Answer:

Mass -

1). mass is simply the measure of the amount of matter in your body.

2). mass is denoted by M

3). mass is always constant for a body .

mass = volume x density

4). mass of base quantity

5). mass only has magnitude so it is called scalar quantity.

weight -

1). Weight is the measure of the amount of force acting on a mass due to acceleration due to gravity.

2). Weight is denoted by “W”

3). Weight is the measure of the gravitational force acting on a body.

4). Weight can be calculated from the following formula:

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

5).Weight is a derived quantity.
