Difference between MASS and WEIGHT

Many times mass and weight are used to describe the same thing. However, these two measurements are different. In this video, I explain the difference between mass and weight.
Mass is a measure of how much matter something contains, which equals the number of atoms in it
Weight is a measure of how strongly gravity pulls on something
The SI unit for mass is kilograms
The SI unit for weight is the newton N

your welcome

No problem👌 you help me with my exam tomorrow:0

[@lalapala5568]

No

[@user-ew7bg1zm2g]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Sahdato]

Your explanation is very nice. Thank you. I understood mass and weight more when I watched the video❤❤❤

[@thecolonel4551]

Nice job! I find it amazing how many even "University Physics" professors (University Physics = Calculus-Based-Physics) fail to ensure their students get this. The simplest example is if I use a comparative balance with a 1Kg reference object, and I put an unknown substance as the counter object that levels the balance, the mass of that unknown object is also 1Kg. Now if I go to the moon and put the 1Kg reference object and the same unknown object as the counter - guess what? They are still equal because their masses are still equal. However their weights (gravitational force) will be a different value as from Earth (but still, they are equal in weight to each other too). Life is good indeed with enlightenment ...

Am i the only one that was sent her bc of school and just read the comments?

[@addiboo1950]

Not you alone

[@hamzamalik2055]

Nope sadly I have a physics test ima cry 😢

[@michellebailey-hutchinson2437]

No

[@HATENASTYA]

No homie

[@user-hc4zl5oy4y]

Nope i am here cuz of same reason

[@cheskaavneen9270]

Thank you very much you helped me in my exam on September 14,2023 you deserved a new subscriber❤️🥰

[@user-je5ub9or3h]

I like the video

[@DanielStone-yw1rn]

Did I hear that properly it's sounds like the heavier we are the more we love the earth or was it the opposite, anyhoo would weight be the amt of wh or ground we have to cover it, the amt of ey the amount of pressure we have to deal with and then the 3rd it how much we actually ate, one person can eat like a horsepower but not be one and it would depend on the weight of the food as well or the density of it or the mass of the food eaten, we need a lot more information about what these good and bad energy we are eating and unused energy is doing to our matter and to our mind, thankyou for your video

[@dimbluewave]

omfgg this helped me a lot 😭 tysm!!

[@MooMooMath]

Thanks

[@amyjbell08]

Thank you so much for this content! It was a wonderful tool to help my smart, curious little boy understand mass!

[@omardiaz3305]

Nice explained!

[@jacobchao1982]

THIS HELP ME PASS MY SCIENCE TEST. THANK YOU

[@wemcal]

Great video and great information

[@errylscarletdiestro1850]

This help me for my exam tomorrow! :0

[@natok8748]

Thank you MooMooMath

[@MooMooMath]

Welcome and thanks for the kind words

[@physicswcccd]

An additional factor, besides location, that effects weight is acceleration of the reference frame. Under the principle of equivalence, an accelerating reference frame and a stationary object in a gravitational field are equivalent. So if I get on an elevator with a spring scale, the objects weight will change when the elevator accelerates. However a balance with a fulcrum would continue to show the same mass.
Also, "the amount of stuff" is a bit vague. One can get into a circular argument about how much mass said "stuff" has. A better definition is the net amount of force, needed to cause an acceleration, divided by the rate of acceleration.

[@MooMooMath]

Thanks

[@user-px7vs5sg2k]

What would u say is the key differences of the two, in ur words

[@thecolonel4551]

Yes, that is how a rotating space station can mimic gravity - to some extent. It is based on acceleration (in the reference frame), not gravity from the station's mass.

[@hayaelachi2727]

Nice video and it’s clear🙏🏻

[@MooMooMath]

Glad to hear that

[@jana6577]

thank youuu

[@cactiboi1]

So Mass and gravitational force= Weight on an object

[@joshuayeojunle7700]

This vid helped me with my homework

[@MooMooMath]

Good to hear

[@iberomagazine]

Gravity is an effect of bending the psacetime, not a force I underestand Einstein said
how do we eat that

[@jeremy_editer]

Thanks🥰🥰😍

[@mungtung1592]

Wow thank you for teaching me

[@sukesheducation]

i love this vid, do more vids

[@MooMooMath]

Thanks

[@aishaguro7201]

DOMORE!!

[@user-fi9nr1rr2d]

Ohhhhhhhhh know I get it

[@sweetstonegypsy6673]

that one detail inserted at 2:48 (amount of matter = number of atoms) is the part I never heard. is it the number of atoms or their combined atomic numbers?

[@MooMooMath]

Number of atoms

[@Pearl776]

Tysm you helped me with my final exams!!! ❤😊

[@kaifalishaikh7374]

Nice video

[@thebooca]

"verse" vs. "versus". One is correct, and the other is in this video.

[@shudufhadzomulaudzi4232]

it good but i do not understand what you are talking about ???????????

[@madsea6719]

Im still confused asf. I have a mass of lets say 80kgs.(i weight 80 kgs) so is my mass actually 80kgs divided by9.81? Or since i am on the ground and have no acceleration shouldnt i deal 0 Newtons of weight on earth since 80kg × 0 acceleration is 0. I know that if i jump for 1 second i accelerate down 9.81 meters. And in that moment i pressure the earth with 9.81×80=784 Newtons of force. Is acceleration constant 9.81 when we are not falling?

[@pinobringvlog6212]

The answer is idk

[@MUTUALFUNDBYLOKESH]

My weight at earth is 70 kg. So my mass will be almost 7 kg ? Am I right? Taking g =10 m/s2

[@Layarion]

...is mass how many atoms an object is made of?

[@SanjayKumar-ri1wc]

😊

[@annabellenailinspiration2234]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@RockstarT224]

Tyytt

[@arathybsarathybs6859]

Helpful 😇

[@victoriaowhotaike883]

Good

[@victoriaowhotaike883]

Nice👍👏

[@sukesheducation]

I like it

[@MooMooMath]

Thanks

[@cumaraxmed3107]

Another reason why people use weight and mass same is. We life or we are in planet earth and gravity is same everywhere in earth. And we don't know difference b/w them. But when we go into moon or outside our planet we realise difference b/w mass and weight. B/c gravity is weaker in moon

[@madsea6719]

So why do we say i weight 80kgs (on earth). Shouldnt we say i weight 80 Newtons of force. Since mass is in kilograms and weight is in newtons?

[@user-je5ub9or3h]

Thank you so much

[@hebahaboobi1972]

You teech better than my teacher

[@MooMooMath]

Thanks I have taught in public schools for 29 years.

[@Winz3]

Do all of us have a exam?

[@thoughtfullAI355]

👍👍

[@FaisalKhan-um7mh]

I want the meaning and an example

[@youandI78913]

🤠🤠

[@FootballAdam2024W]

1:04 his mass is OMG!!!

[@xxxbaldwin]

thank you sir

[@mitalibaxi5788]

Nice presentation but need to improve speech

[@MooMooMath]

Ok

[@danet1244]

Sound like “all right, all right, all riiight”. 😅

[@marwamostafa7585]

NlCE Video

[@disneyfan_1237]

Great video

[@kholoudkwedar3868]

I like that video

[@marissahiggs2657]

Tysm I have exam soon!

[@dry_nitrogen2799]

What did the cow say….. moo moo😂😂😮😮

[@victoriaowhotaike883]

I need to learn weight

[@Therianonfourpaws]

Moooo

[@kamranasadov1783]

moooooo

[@egnhavene]

?...

[@user-ye6jf6lp2d]

It should 90.91N not 90.91kg, coz it is mass not weight

[@user-jp3fi9lr9w]

bro even explained better than my teacher

[@ruamajed2561]

100 and 65 pounds!!! What impossibl😮😮😮

[@dara_1989]

mass - kg
weight - newton
force - 🤨

[@jehanhussain2003]

newton so force i assume in this cases is proprotional to gravity

[@vishalacharya5683]

[@sesethebes6652]

What

[@chrismooneyham5279]

Gravity has not been proved. This video is ridiculous. A persons weight doesn't change depending on location. That is the most ludicrous thing I have ever heard.
