Question

what is the difference between mass and weight???​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1) Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains, while Weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. 2) Mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknown amount of matter. Weight is measured on a scale.

Answer 2

Properties of mass

• Mass is the quantity of matter possessed by a body.
• It is a scalar quantity, which has magnitude only.
• Its unit is kilogram (kg).
• It is not changed by changing the position.
• It is calculated by the formula:    m=w/g
• It is measured by physical balance, beam balance, electronic balance, etc

Properties of weight

• Weight is the gravitational force by which earth attracts it.
• It is a vector quantity, which means that it has magnitude and direction.
• Its unit is the newton (N).
• It is changed by changing the position.
• It is calculated by the formula: w=mg
• It is measured by a spring balance..
