Weight, mathematically speaking, is just mass times acceleration due to gravity. Mass is inherent in the object being weighed, and does not change. However, gravity can change (albeit very slightly) even on different points on the earth's surface. And comparing the earth's surface to that of other planets, gravity changes radically due to the difference between Earth's mass and that of other planets. So the greater gravity is, the greater the weight of a particular object will be. This explains the difference between weights of an object on the earth versus that on other planets -gravity is different on different planets. It also explains why comparing the weights of two objects at the same point on the earth's surface shows the difference in the mass of the two objects: the acceleration due to gravity is the same, so that masses are the only things that change.
No. Only your weight does.
Matter is measured because the weight will differ depending on the gravity of a planet while mass will not. And density is calculated as mass divide be volume. D=M/V
Yes. What you weigh depends on the gravity of the planet you are on.
[ Mass ] is a property of the object, and doesn't depend on the presence or strength of gravity.[ Weight ] is the result of gravity, and changes depending on the local strength of gravity.
mass is the amount of matter in an object. mass remains unaffected by gravity. weight is a measure of a gravitational pull on n object and is there for affected by gravity.
Because weight is a measure of gravity pushing down on an object. Therefore, an object can weigh more on another planet than on Earth.
Your weight will always differ depending on the pull of gravity to which you are experiencing. Your mass however, will not change. So for instance, the force of gravity on the moon is 1.635 m/s2 whereas the force of gravity on earth is 9.81m/s2 therefore the weight would be different. You can find your mass and weight doing simple physics calculations.
Weight is affected by gravity. Gravity pulls you down causing you to have weight on Earth. Depending on gravity your weight changes. On earth gravity is 9.8 m/s squared.
It is weight changes depending on gravity. Weight can change. The pull of gravity determines an objects weight.

your mass will be the same, but you weight will differ. because as the calculation shows, weight= mass X gravity, and the gravity of the earth is 9.8 m/s2 and the gravity of the moon is 1.622 m/s2. so you weight will not be the same in the moon as of the earth.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Mass remains unaffected by gravity. Weight is a measure of the gravitational pull on an object and is therefore affected by gravity.
