Mass and Weight
- Mass and weight are not the same thing: mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted on an object by gravity.
- The SI unit for mass is the kilogram (kg).
- Weight is affected by gravity, so the weight of an object changes depending on the gravitational field it is in.
- The weight of an object can also be affected by other factors, such as buoyancy or air resistance.
