what is the relationship between mass and weight

mass is the force of gravity on the weight of an object
weight is the force of gravity on the mass of an obect
mass and weight are not forces
weight and mass are the same force

1 answer

The correct answer is: mass and weight are not forces.

Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object and is a scalar quantity, typically measured in kilograms (kg). Weight, on the other hand, is the force exerted on an object due to gravity and is a vector quantity, usually measured in newtons (N).

The relationship between mass and weight can be expressed using the equation: weight = mass x gravity. This equation shows that weight is directly proportional to mass and the acceleration due to gravity. In other words, the weight of an object increases with an increase in mass or gravitational acceleration.
