In physics, (m) mass is a property of a physical body. It is the measure of an object’s resistance to acceleration when acted upon by a force. Mass also determines the strength of gravity between two objects. The more massive an object is, the greater its gravitational pull will be.

Mass is often confused with weight, but they are not the same thing. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity on an object. It depends on both the mass of the object and its distance from the center of gravity (the Earth’s for example). An object with more mass will have more weight than one with less mass, all else being equal. But if two objects have different masses and are at different distances from the center of gravity, they can have different weights even though their masses are equal!
