Answer:
The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

Answer:
Mass and Weight Difference. Mass is defined by the amount of acceleration an object feels when a force is acted upon. Any object having mass feels a force of attraction in a gravitational field. The gravitational force is called the object's weight.
