Matter has weight; weight is associated with matter. Matter can be visible; weight is a concept. Matter can change forms (water to ice to steam); weight has no transformation of such kind. A rock is a matter; the weight of a rock changes with altitude on earth and is lighter on Mars or the moon, while the mass of the rock does not change.
I think you might mean "Mass" and "Weight" - and the difference is the effect gravity has on things, and to a certain extent, the density of the item. For example, a pound of feathers and a pound of lead both WEIGH exactly the same (er...one pound, right?) but they have very different MASS. Also a hot-air balloon is rather massive, but does not have a lot of weight, relative to it's size.
Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, measured in newtons. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, measured in kilograms. Weight can vary depending on the gravitational pull, while mass remains constant.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. Mass is a scalar quantity and is constant, whereas weight is a vector quantity and can change based on the gravitational force acting on an object.
A scale or balance can be used to measure the weight of items and determine the difference in weight between them. By placing each item on the scale individually and recording the readings, you can calculate the difference in weight between the items accurately.
"Heavy" typically refers to the actual physical weight of an object, while "weighty" can refer to significance, importance, or seriousness of a matter.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, and it remains constant regardless of location. Weight, on the other hand, is the force of gravity acting on an object and can change depending on the gravitational pull.
Mass is a measure of how much matter an object has. Weight is a measure of how strongly gravity pulls on that matter.
The difference between a person's weight on the earth and on the moon has to due with the difference between mass and weight. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter and weight is the pull of gravity on that mass. Gravity on the moon is about 83% that on earth, so if you weigh 100 lbs on earth, you will weigh approximately 17 lbs on the moon.
Mass is the amount of matter or molecules that a specific object is composed of. Weight is the measure of gravity's pull on you. Does this help answer your question?
Yes, but it's important to understand the difference between weight and mass. Matter has mass without gravity. Gravity pulls objects with mass toward the center of the earth, giving them weight.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Weight is is the gravitational force on that matter.
about a 75 # weight difference between both sides.
Three tons is the difference between them
what is the difference between matter and electrostatics
There is no difference in an astronaut's mass no matter where he or she might be. Mass is a constant, as opposed to weight which is dependent upon acceleration.None.Put simply. Mass is a measurement of how much matter is in an object, whereas weight is a measurement of how hard gravity is pulling on that object. As their is less gravity on the moon, your weight would be different, your mass would not.
Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, measured in newtons. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, measured in kilograms. Weight can vary depending on the gravitational pull, while mass remains constant.
The difference is that Density is one way of measuring matter, its a math expression. While Matter is a physical substance.
Mass- the amount of matter that something is made of Weight- a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object
