Mass is a measure of how much __________ (stuff) an object is made up of. It is measured in Kilograms (kg).
Weight is the __________ directed to the __________ of the Earth, experienced by objects of mass, due to the attraction of gravity.
As with all other forces Weight is measured in __________ (__________). It is proportional to the mass of the object and the strength of gravity between them.
Although the symbol for weight is 'W', it is more common to use 'mg' in diagrams and calculations.
Close to the Earth's __________, the gravitational field strengh is approximately 10 Newtons per Kilograms (N/kg).
Examples
An average apple has a weight of 1 __________. Therefore it has a mass of __________ kg.
An object with a mass of 50 kg has a weight of __________ __________.
On the Moon's surface the gravitational field strength is approximately 1.6 N/kg. The weight of the same 50 kg object on the moon, is only __________ __________.
