◇ Inertial mass is mass on which force is applied to produce a motion or to keep it in rest state.
◆ So newton's law is applicable, F = ma, this m is Inertial one.
◇ Gravitational mass is that mass influenced by gravitational pull (g).
◆ W = mg, this m is gravitational one.
Full what is difference??are both same??i think they should be same but only difference is that different properties (inertia) and other (gravitational weight) is take to give two different terms.
yes in classical physics. But a big NO in modern physics
So tell me answer to to Q i asked in previous mssg
