The weight depends on the force of gravity at the point where the object is weighed.

How do you find the mass of an object If the mass of the beaker is 15grams and the total weight is 30.100grams?

Subtract the mass of the beaker from the total weight.


What terms are used to describe how much an object weighs?

The terms used to describe how much an object weighs are mass, weight, and grams or kilograms. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass, and grams or kilograms are units of measurement for weight.


May be described in grams or kilograms?

The mass of an object. NOT WEIGHT!


What is a property that may be measured in units of grams or kilograms?

The property of matter that is measured in grams is mass. Mass is different from weight in that it accounts for the gravitational forces that increase the weight of an object.


What object weighs 500.0 Grams?

No object does since weight is not measured in grams but in Newtons. Grams are used for measuring mass, not weight.


How can you find the mass of the object?

To find the mass of an object, you can use a scale to measure its weight in grams or kilograms. Weight is a force that is directly proportional to mass, so by measuring the weight of an object, you can determine its mass.


100g and a square what is the mass of it?

100 grams is its mass, whatever the shape.


Is mass the amount of gravity in your body?

mass is the amount of matter in an object and it is measured in grams. weight deals with gravitys exertion on an object.


How do you calculate the mass of an object?

To calculate the mass of an object, you can use a balance or scale to measure its weight in grams or kilograms. The mass of an object is the amount of matter it contains, and it is a measure of the object's inertia.


How do you find mass using grams?

Weight the object on a balance with SI units.


What do you measure grams for?

Grams are a measure of mass. Sometimes people interchange the words 'mass' and 'weight'. But mass refers to the quantity of matter, while weight refers to the force exerted on an object due to gravity. So as long as you have 1g gravitational acceleration exerting on the object, then its mass and weight will be the same. Grams are typically used for measuring mass of small objects. Example: a US nickel has a mass of about 5 grams. (Some people would say it 'weighs' 5 grams).


If an object has a mass of 12.5 grams What is the mass on the moon?

The same as on earth because mass remains constant everywhere if you are thinking about the "weight" then it will be changed .
