what is the difference between mass and weight.
Answers
Mass:
1. Mass is the amount of matter contained in a body.
2. Mass of the body is the constant quantity and does not change with the change of position or location.
Weight:
1. Weight is the force exerted by a body when it is in a gravitational field. It depends upon the gravitational field
2. Weight of the body is the variable quantity and changes with the change in position and location due to the acceleration of the gravity acting on it. Yes they are used at different places and time.
So these are the basic difference between Weight and Mass of the object
1. Definition : Mass is the quantity of matter in a body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it. Weight is a measurement of the gravitational force acting on an object.
2. Effect of gravity : Mass is always constant at any place and any time. The weight of an object depends on the gravity at that place
3. Unit of Measurement : Mass is expressed in kilogram (kg), grams (g), and milligram (mg). Weight is expressed in Newton (N)
4. Balance used for measurement : Mass is measured using a pan balance, a triple-beam balance, lever balance or electronic balance. Weight is measured using a spring balance.
5. Type of quantity : mass is a Scalar and base quantity. weigth is a Vector and derived quant
Hii
You are welcome in my ans
weight is the product of mass and velovity .
while
mass is the majors of amount of matters in a body .
