    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.
