In terms of physics, weight is expressed in Newtons and is synonymous with force. The weight of an object can change as related to the force of gravity (acceleration) acting upon it. Acceleration is expressed in meters per second squared and on Earth this is 9.8m/sec^2. In contrast, the moon's acceleration is about six times less powerful at about 1.62m/sec^2.
'Mass' is expressed in kilograms. For everyday objects and energies, mass describes the amount of matter in an object; an object's physical 'make-up'. Mass does not change. An astronaut's mass, his physical composition, does not change merely because he moves from the earth to the moon. But, his weight does change as a result of the decrease in gravitational force. His weight will be about six times less on the moon.
Weight is measured in Newtons, as it represents the force of gravity acting on an object. Mass, on the other hand, is measured in kilograms and represents the amount of matter in an object. Weight is dependent on gravity, while mass is a fundamental property of an object that remains constant regardless of the gravitational force acting on it.
'Kg' is a unit of mass, not weight. On Earth, 1 kg of mass weighs 9.8 newtons, and 1 newton is the weight of about 0.102 kg of mass. On the moon, the same kg of mass weighs 1.6 newtons, and 1 newton is the weight of about 0.616 kg of mass. On Mars, the same kg of mass weighs 3.7 newtons, and 1 newton is the weight of about 0.269 kg of mass.
Weight is a force that describes the attraction of mass towards a gravitational body due to the gravitational force. The weight of a newton is precisely 1 newton since newtons (N) is unit of weight. Mass describes the amount of matter in the object and is constant of gravitational pull. A mass of 1 kg on earth is equivalent to a mass of 1 kg on Jupiter but the weights are different.
The weight of an object with a mass of 40 kg is approximately 392.4 N (Newton), assuming standard gravity of 9.81 m/s².
The weight of a 14-kilogram mass would be approximately 137.2 Newtons on Earth (using the acceleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s²). Weight is a force that is the product of mass and gravitational acceleration.
Mass is typically measured in kilograms (kg) or grams (g), while weight is measured in newtons (N) or pounds (lb).
On or near the surface of the Earth, 1 newton is the weight of 0.102 kg. In other places, 1 newton is the weight of a different amount of mass.
mass is 0.0010 kg and its weight is 0.00981 Newton
Weight is a measure of the gravitational pull for a mass , such that a mass of 1 Kg is having a weight of 10 Newton . So weight is a downward force measured in Newtons . Weight ( in N ) = Mass ( in Kg ) × Gravity ( usually 10N/Kg )
'Kg' is a unit of mass, not weight. On Earth, 1 kg of mass weighs 9.8 newtons, and 1 newton is the weight of about 0.102 kg of mass. On the moon, the same kg of mass weighs 1.6 newtons, and 1 newton is the weight of about 0.616 kg of mass. On Mars, the same kg of mass weighs 3.7 newtons, and 1 newton is the weight of about 0.269 kg of mass.
Close to the Earth's surface, each kilogram has a weight of about 9.8 newton. Thus, you must simply multiply the mass by 9.8 (newton/kilogram).
According to SI System of Units: Unit of Mass - Kilogram (Kg) Unit of Weight - Newton (N)
To get the weight (in Newton), multiply the mass by Earth's gravitation - about 9.8, in SI units.
The Newton - weight is measured in force. mass*gravity = weight mass (kg) gravity (m/s^2) weight in (N)
Newton's Law F = m * a Force is a product of mass and acceleration Weight is a special case of Newton's Laws W = m * g Weight is a product of mass and the acceleration due to gravity. Weight, W, is in Newtons (N) mass, m, is in kilograms (kg) g = 9.81 m/s²

The weight of an object with a mass of 40 kg is approximately 392.4 N (Newton), assuming standard gravity of 9.81 m/s².
Acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 24.79 m/sec2. Therefore, if the mass is 100 kg, you won't weight 900 Newton, you'll weigh 2479 Newton.
