∙ 8y agoIn the same gravity, downward force (weight) is directly proportional to the mass. (F=mA) If you had two objects of equal mass, and combined them, the weight would be the same as the total of the two.

∙ 8y agoAn object with twice the mass of another would weigh twice as much because weight is directly proportional to mass. When mass increases, the force of gravity acting on the object also increases, resulting in a greater weight. This relationship is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that force (weight) is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration (gravity).
An object with twice the mass of another will weigh twice as much when both objects are on the same planet or celestial body with a constant gravitational acceleration. Weight is directly proportional to mass when the gravitational acceleration remains constant.
An object with twice as much mass as another will weigh twice as much when the gravitational force acting on both objects is the same. This occurs when both objects are on Earth or in a location with the same gravitational pull.
The weight of an object is twice as much when it has twice the mass compared to another object. Weight is proportional to mass, as given by the equation: weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity.
The first object also has twice as much inertia. This means it requires twice as much force to accelerate or decelerate compared to the second object.
To find the mass of an irregular object using a common balance, you can first weigh a known object with a regular shape to calibrate the balance. Then, weigh the irregular object. Subtract the mass of the known object from the total mass to determine the mass of the irregular object.

it is equal to the mass of the original object
On Earth, you weigh it. In space you must determine its inertia ... usually done by noting its orbit around another object.
The idea here is that if - for example - one object has twice the inertia than another (i.e., twice the "inertial mass"), its reaction to gravity (its "gravitational mass") will also be twice as much. Thus, the gravitational mass and the inertial mass are directly proportional to one another, and you can just as well choose the proportionality constant to be one, making them equal.
An easy way to do that is to weigh the object. In principle, the mass can be derived from the weight.

Twice the mass --> twice the kinetic energy.
Weight is due to gravitational forces between two objects. A single object inspace without another one reasonably nearby, or even in gravitational free-falltoward another object, is weightless. So you can not weigh an object in space.Determining the mass of objects in space is another matter.
