What is mass?
Mass is the amount of matter inside an object
1 of 7
What is weight?
Weight is the force of gravity on a body/object
2 of 7
An object has the same mass everywhere, whether on the moon, Earth or outer space
An object has a different weight derpending on the sixe of the pulling gravational force in a certain place
3 of 7
Mass is equal to weight divided by gravity
Weight is equal to mass multiplied by gravity
4 of 7
Gravity is equal to weight divided by mass
The gravational field strength is approximately 10N/Kg
5 of 7
