Question

What is the difference between weight and mass?

Answer 1

Hey! 

<> The mass of an object reference to the amount of natter that is contained by the object. 

<> The weight if an object is the force of gravity acting upon that object. 

<> Mass is related to how much stuff is there. 

<> Weight is related to the pull if the Earth (or any other planet) upon that stuff. 

<> The mass of an object (measured in kg) will be sane no matter where in universe the object is located. 

For eg: Mass is never altered by location, pull of gravity, speed or even the existence of other forces. A 2 kg object will have a mass of 2 kg whether it is located on Earth, moon, Jupiter etc. Its mass will be 2 kg whether it is moving or not. 

<> Weight of an object (measured in newton) will vary to where in the universe the object is. 

For eg: Weight depends upon the which planet is exerting the force and the distance the object is from the planet. Weight, being equivalent to force of gravity, is dependent upon the value of 'g' - the gravitational field strength. On the earth's surface, 'g' is 9,8 N. On the moon's surface 'g' is 1.7 N. Go to another planet there will be another 'g' value. 
Furthermore, the 'g' value is inversely proportional to the distance from the centre of the planet. So if we were to measure 'g' at a distance of 400 km above earth's surface, then we would find 'g' value to be less than 9.8 N.

Hope this helps...!!

Answer 2

ANSWER
..........

=1. WEIGHT = THE WEIGHT MEANT BY THE=
=THE GRAVITATIONAL FORCE ACTING ON AN =OBJECTS OS CALLED THE WEIGHT.=...........

=2. THE WEIGHT IS DIFFERENCE IN= =DIFFERENT PLACE.........


=========================================

1. MASS = THE AMOUNT OF MATTER IS PRESENT IN AN OBJECTS IS CALLED THE MASS.........

2. THE MASS IS SAME IN THE EVERY PLACE
