Answer 2

Answer:

Following are some differences between mass and weight:-

Explanation:

1) MASS- It is a property of matter. Thus, it is the same everywhere, it never varies.

WEIGHT- It depends on gravity. Thus, it varies from place to place.

2) MASS- It can never be zero.

WEIGHT- It can be zero when no gravitational force is acting on it.

3) MASS- It is a Scalar quantity as it has only magnitude.

WEIGHT- It is a Vector quantity as it has both, magnitude and direction.

4) MASS- Its SI Unit is Kilogram[kg].

WEIGHT- Its SI Unit is Newton[N].

5) MASS- It is measured using Analytical(beam) or Electronic Balance.

WEIGHT- It is measured using Spring Balance.

6) MASS- It can be calculated by the formula:- Mass= Density * Volume

WEIGHT- It can be calculated by the formula:- Weight=Mass * Acceleration                                      due to gravity
