There are several appropriate units for each quantity. Here are some:

Force: Newton, pound-force ("pound")

Mass: Kilogram, poundal, pound-mass, slug

Acceleration: meters per second2, feet per second2

Weight: weight is force; use same units as force

Pressure: (force divided by area): newtons per square meter, pounds per square inch

Weight in scientific notation?

mass*acceleration due to gravity.


What is formula of weight?

Weight = Mass * Acceleration due to Gravity. In the SI system, Mass is measured in kilograms, g, the acceleration due to gravity, is normally taken to be 9.8 (or 9.81) ms-2, and Weight is measured in Newtons.


Is gravity measured in grams?

gravity is weight and weight is measured in N (newtons). so, no, its not measured in grams. :) Actually, gravity is measured as acceleration and is 9.8 Meters/second/second or 32.2 feet/second/second. Weight is the effect felt BECAUSE of gravity.


What is the Weight of a body is measured in?

Why would you have low oil pressure on acceleration?

Wrong oil weight


What does not have direction force weight acceleration or mass?

Light does not have weight, acceleration, or mass. It does have direction and can exert force, as seen in phenomena such as radiation pressure.


What is the definition of air pressure and what intrument is it measured with?

Air pressure is the force exerted on an object or area by the weight of the surrounding air particles.Air pressure is measured by Barometer.


What can volume mass and weight be measured by?

Volume is measured with pipettes, liquid or gas counters, burettes, cylinders, calibrated recipients etc.Mass is measured with all types of balances.For weight, in physics weight = mass x gravitational acceleration.


Do a spring scale measures mass?

Weight is the property measured by a spring scale. That is Mass X Acceleration.


How do you describe weight?

Weight is a measure of the force exerted on an object due to gravity. It is typically measured in units such as pounds or kilograms, and represents the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity.


What three ways can gas be measured?

By normally pressure, volume or weight.


How does the mass differs from weight?

Mass is defined as the amount of matter in an object. Weight is the product of the mass of an object and the acceleration due to gravity. Acceleration due to gravity depends on the planet you are on...Earth's acceleration due to gravity is a constant -9.81 m/s^2. The mass, on planet Earth, will always be less than the weight. Weight can be measured in newtons or pounds. Mass is measured in kg.
