Mass is a property of a body (measure of inertia). ◦ Irrespective of its position relative to gravity. ◦ Often expressed as Kg. Weight depends on gravity. An object will weigh more on earth than on moon because gravitational force greater on earth. ◦ Weight often considered to be unit of force, expressed as Kg x A grav Where Kg is mass and A grav is acceleration due to gravity.

1. A body will continue to remain at rest or in motion with a constant velocity unless it is acted upon by an outside force. 2. The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it, and is inversely proportional to its mass (A = F/Kg). 3. For every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force. 1. A body will continue to remain at rest or in motion with a constant velocity unless it is acted upon by an outside force. 2.
