Difference between Mass and Weight Quiz

What is the definition of mass?

• The speed of an object

• The volume of an object

• Measure of the amount of matter in an object

• The force of gravity acting on an object

How is mass different from weight?

• Mass is the force exerted on an object due to gravity, while weight is the amount of matter in an object.

• Mass and weight are the same thing and can be used interchangeably.

• Mass is measured in pounds, while weight is measured in kilograms.

• Weight is the amount of matter in an object

• Weight is the same as mass

• Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity, while mass is the amount of matter in an object.

Why does weight vary with location?

• Due to the variation in gravitational pull at different locations on the Earth's surface.

• Because the temperature varies in different locations

• Because the air pressure is different in each location

• Due to the rotation of the Earth
