Weight is a force - the force with which gravity attracts an object. Therefore, being a force, it is measured in unites of force, usually Newtons.

What is mass multiplied by gravity?
Force or weight Force= mass X acceleration gravity is an acceleration (9.8m/s2) Weight = mass X acceleration due to gravity
Is Weight is the measure of force and mass?
Weight is a measure of the gravitational pull for a mass , such that a mass of 1 Kg is having a weight of 10 Newton . So weight is a downward force measured in Newtons . Weight ( in N ) = Mass ( in Kg ) × Gravity ( usually 10N/Kg )
Is a kilogram used as a measurement in mass and weight?
No. Kilogram is a unit of mass only. Weight is measured in units of force; the SI unit for force is the Newton.
How do you find the mass of an object given the weight and volume?
If you know the force of gravity then mass = weight/gravitational force. If you don't then you cannot. Knowing the volume is useless.
If an object has a mass of 75 kg what is it's weight?
Its weight depends on the force of gravity acting on the mass. In outer space, for example, its weight will be 0.
How does force impact mass and weight?
-- Force has no effect on mass.-- "Weight" is force.
Is mass and weight a force?
Mass and weight are not forces.But weight or a pull of gravity of an object with mass has force
Is mass a measure of force?
No Weight is a measurement of force... mass is not.
Is your weight your mass or force?
Your weight is a combination of your mass and the force of gravity. on the moon your weight is less because the force of gravity is less, however your mass remains constant no matter where it is measured.
How is mass related to force?
force= mass* acceleration. weight is a force. But most of the people are confused with mass and weight. The SI unit of mass is kilogram( kg) and SI unit of force is Newtons(N)
Is weight measured of the gravitational force on an object?
Weight is gravitational force on an objects Mass. Mass don't change when gravity changes but the weight does.
Is the weight of an object gravitational force of an object?
Weight is gravitational force on an objects Mass. Mass don't change when gravity changes but the weight does.
Does weight define an objects mass?
No, weight is a force. Mass is proportional to density.
How are weight and force are related?
Weight depends on force. The amount of weight depends on the amount of force
What does not have direction force weight acceleration or mass?
Mass
Is a measure of force?
No Weight is a measurement of force... mass is not.
What is a similarity between mass an weight?
mass times acceleration is a force. If the acceleration is caused by gravity then the force is called weight.
