The video tutorial explains the difference between mass and weight, emphasizing that mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force of gravity on that mass. It illustrates how weight varies on different celestial bodies like the Moon and Jupiter due to varying gravitational forces. The tutorial also covers the concept of gravitational field strength and how it affects weight calculations. Using examples like a bag of sugar and Newton's apple, the video demonstrates how to calculate weight on Earth, the Moon, and Jupiter, highlighting that while weight changes, mass remains constant.
