Answer 2

Answer:

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

1. Mass is simply the measure                           Weight is the measure of the

  the amount of matter in a                                amount of force acting on a

  body.                                                                  mass due to acceleration.

2. Mass is denoted by “M”.                                  Weight is denoted by “W”.

3. Mass is a base quantity.                                   Weight is a derived quantity.
