It doesn't really. mass is what is inside something. For example, if you went to the moon, you wouldn't lose anything therefore, your mass would not change. But if you went to the moon, your weight would go down. This is because there is a much smaller gravitational pull on the moon than the earth does. So, basically the weight of something is decided by how powerful the gravitational pull is on you.

Why do objects with more mass have greater weight?

weight is the effect of gravity acting on mass,the greater the mass the greater the effect on gravity will have on it therefore the greater the weight. eg. if the mass is 50kg and gravity is 10N the the weight is 500N,if the mass increases to 100kg the the weight would increase to 1000N

The weight of an object is based on what?

Its mass and the gravity of the objects that are close enough to it to have a great effect on it.


What is mass not effected by?

Gravity has no effect on the mass of an object as everything whatever the weight experiencing the same force of gravity (9.8N). However an objects weight is the gravitational force on the object.


What is the effect of gravity on weight?

Gravity is what gives an object weight. The force of gravity pulls objects towards the center of the Earth, giving them a weight relative to their mass. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.


How does density effect the weight of something?

Density affects the weight of an object by determining how much mass is concentrated in a given volume. Objects with higher density have more mass packed into a smaller space, resulting in greater weight. Conversely, objects with lower density have less mass confined in a larger volume, leading to reduced weight.


Are objects masses?

Of course objects have mass because Mass is any object that has weight.


What had the most effect on an objects Inertia?

Its mass


What has most effect on an objects inertia?

Mass


Does density define an objects mass?

weight


How does force impact mass and weight?

-- Force has no effect on mass.-- "Weight" is force.


Does an objects weight increases its mass decrases?

no, weight is just an objects mass with the force of gravity, so as one increases the other will increase too
