Answer:
1. The difference between mass and weight is that mass is the amount of matter in a material, while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body. ... Weight usually is denoted by W. Weight is mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity (g).
2.The moon's mass is 1/100 times and 1/4 times the earth's radius. As a result, when compared to earth, the gravitational attraction on the moon is about one-sixth. Thus, an object's weight on the moon is 1/6th its earth weight.
