    Worksheet Mass and Weight


    Name: Class:

    1. The standard metric unit for mass is _____ and the standard metric unit for weight is
    _____.

    2. An object's mass refers to _____ and an object's weight refers to _____. Fill in each
    blank.
    a. The amount of space it takes up b. The force of gravitational attraction to
    Earth
    c. How dense an object is d. The amount of stuff present in the object

    3. Complete the following table showing the relationship between mass and weight.

    Object Mass Approx. Weight


    Melon 1 kg
    Apple 1.0 N

    Pat Eatladee 25 kg

    4. Different masses are hung on a spring scale calibrated in


    Newtons. The force exerted by gravity on 1 kg = 10 N.
    The force exerted by gravity on
    5 kg = ______ N. The force exerted by
    gravity on 70 kg = ________ N.

    5. You might be wondering about your metric weight. Using conversion factors, convert
    your weight in pounds to units of N. (Use 1 N = 0.10 kg)

    6. What is the mass and weight of a 10-kg object on earth?

    Mass = Weight =

    7. What is the mass and weight of a 10-kg object on the moon where the force of gravity
    is 1/6-th that of the Earth's?

    Mass = Weight =

    8. Conclusion: The _____________ of an object is independent of the object's location


    in space.
