Question

What do you mean by mass of 5 kg
?

Answer 1

Answer:

So a 5 kg object has a mass of 5 kg. The weight you associate with it is only relevant on Earth (under its specific gravity) and in fact really the kilogram-force measurement which is measured in Newtons (5 kg x 9.8 m/s 2 = 49.2 N). Commonly, it means the object weighs 5 kg
