The mass of an object is the measure of its contents but weight is the force due to gravity. And, the force due to gravity changes on different planets. We know, that on earth g = 9.8 m/s2 And on moon its, g = 1.6 m/s2 Let’s understand this by an example: Example: 1. Calculate…

Weight is the force due to gravity on a mass. So, mass remains constant but weight changes according to  the change in the gravitational field.                 W = mg or m = W/g Solved Examples  1. Calculate the mass of a body if the density and volume of a body are 2 Kg/m3 and 5 m3.…

Mass is a quantity that gives an idea about how much matter is present in an object. It is a quantitative measure of inertia.  And acceleration is inversely proportional to inertia. The relation between force and mass is given by:                  F = ma or m = F/a The relation between density, mass, and volume is…
