The weight and mass of the body are related by the formula
W=m*g
where
W is weight of the body and m is mass of body
and g is acceleration due gravity
The difference between mass and weight of the body are as follows:-
1)The mass of the body is same and it doesn't vary from place to place
while weight of a body varies from place to place as it is dependent on value of g which in turn also varies from place to place
2)The mass of a matter can never be 0 while the weight of a matter can be 0
3) Mass is a scalar quantity while weight is a vector quantity
Hope this helped u :-)
