Question

[5 SENTENCE] Explain the difference between mass and weight. Use an example to help you explain.

Answer 1

Answer:The difference between mass and weight is that mass is the amount of matter in a material, while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body. ... Weight usually is denoted by W. Weight is mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity (g).

Explanation:

A simple weight definition for kids is: weight refers to the force gravity applies to an object. A simple mass definition for kids is: mass reflects the amount of matter (i.e., electrons, protons and neutrons) an object contains. We can place a scale on the moon and weigh an object there.

Answer 2

Answer:

MASS is how much matter is in an object.

WEIGHT is how heavy or light the object is.

Imagine you were on the moon. Your weight is less because there is less gravity than on Earth. Although, your mass stays the same, because your body did not lose any matter (Material).
