Mass vs. Weight
• Mass – amount of MATTER in an object– Basic Unit of mass = gram (g)
• Weight – pull of gravity on an object• Weight depends on your location!– You weigh 6 times more on Earth than on the moon!– You weigh 2.4 times more on Jupiter than on Earth!
• Mass NEVER changes! Weight changes depending on location.
Converting Units…Again?!
