Mass = amount of stuff (matter) in an object.
Weight = A number that indicates the pull of gravity on the object. The bigger the number, the heavier the object. Of course, there are some exceptions to this rule. For instance, if an object is balanced perfectly between two gravitational pulls, it will still contain mass but would be, technically, weightless.

*** is a level of how a lot be counted an merchandise has. Weight is a level of how strongly gravity pulls on that be counted. hence in case you've been to go back and forth to the moon your weight might want to replace because the pull of gravity is weaker there than in the international yet, your mass might want to stay a similar because you're nonetheless created from a similar volume of be counted. Mass is the quantity of be counted modern-day in a body and is an intrinsic resources of the body. Mass of an merchandise continues to be a similar continuously at everywhere. Weight on the different hand is the rigidity which a given mass feels with the aid of gravity at its position. Weight is measured in gadgets of rigidity like Newton (this is the SI unit of rigidity). in the adventure that your mass is 60 kgs then your weight is about 60 x 10 = 600 Newtons. this is because rigidity = mass x acceleration (From Newton's 2d regulation) hence, weight = mass x acceleration with the aid of gravity Mass is a level of the quantity of fabric in an merchandise, being immediately with reference to the large style and style of atoms modern-day contained in the article. Mass does no longer replace with a body's position, circulate or alteration of its structure except fabric is extra or bumped off. The mass is a standard resources of an merchandise, a numerical degree of its inertia and a standard degree of the quantity of be counted contained in the article. Weight is the gravitational rigidity appearing on a body mass. reworking Newton's 2d regulation with reference to the load as a rigidity with the aid of gravity provides w = m g (2) the position w = weight (N) m = mass (kg) g = acceleration of gravity (m/s2) The coping with of mass and weight relies upon on the structures of gadgets this is used. the most user-friendly structures of gadgets are the * global device - SI * British Gravitational device - BG * English Engineering device - EE n the SI device the mass unit is the kg and because that the load is a rigidity - the load unit is the newton (N). Equation (2) for a body with a million kg mass can then be expressed as: w = a million (kg) 9.807 (m/s2) = 9.807 (N) (2b) the position 9.807 (m/s2) = usual gravity on the fringe of earth contained in the SI device hence: * a 9.807 N rigidity appearing on a body with a million kg mass will provide the body an acceleration of 9.807 m/s2 * A body with mass of one million kg weights 9.807 N

WEIGHT- implies the size of the gravitational pull on the object; e.g., how heavy it is, and is measured in units of force
MASS- quantity of matter in an object
Three types of mass:
1. Intertial (measure of an object's resistance to changing its state of motion when a force is applied)
2. Passive gravitational (measure of the strength of an object's interaction with a gravitational field)
3. Active gravitational mass (measure of the strength of the gravitational field due to a particular object)

The weight is governed by the density of the object,and the effect of gravity on it ,to increase the weight just increase the mass.

The mass of weight is how much something weighs and the mass of an object s how much space it takes up.

Think of Mass like a boat, it weighs alot, but its mass is how much it exerts for example, the amount of water a boat pushes away is more than the boats weight therefore a boat can float, if there was just a metal ball in the ocean than the amount of water the ball exerts is less than the weight of the ball therefore the ball shall sink....hope i helped :)

mass is the physical quantity of matter, while weight is the measurement of how much gravity is pulling at a certain object.

mass remains the same but weight changes. example, mass of an object is the same on moon or on earth but the weight differs.

the reality difference is mass can see touch, feel it, it can shape as you like, it is made of compound made from same molecules, in weight= in direct contract we can see the weight until we use weight machine, it can differ from elevation to elevation, and evaporation. condensation can make lot difference in weight, the only diffrance is weight cant touch,
