what are the differences between the mass of an object and it's weight ?..
Answers
Explanation:
Mass is simply the measure of the amount of matter in a body.
Weight is the measure of the amount of force acting on a mass due to acceleration due to gravity.
Mass is denoted by “M”.
Weight is denoted by “W”
Mass is always constant for a body and there are several formulas to calculate mass.
One way to calculate mass is:
Mass = volume × density
Weight is the measure of the gravitational force acting on a body.
Weight can be calculated from the following formula:
Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity
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.
