Which of the following statements about mass and weight is correct? A. "Mass" is the scientific term for "weight''
B. Weight directly measures force while mass directly measures amount of matter.
C. Weight has unit of kilograms or grams. Mass has unit of newtons.
D. The mass of an object depends on the size of the object. The weight of an object dosent depend on the size of the object.

The correct answer is B. Weight directly measures force while mass directly measures the amount of matter.

Explanation:

Weight and mass are two related but not identical concepts. The first term "mass" can be found by measuring the amount of matter in a body or substance. For example, the mass in an apple is around 80 grams depending on its size. In this context, mass is measured using units such as grams or kilograms. On the other hand, weight considers not only the matter in an object but the force exerted in it, especially, the gravitational force. In the case of the apple, the weight is 1 N as newtons (N) are used to measure force and this is the result of multiplying the mass by gravity. According to this, option B is correct.

dec 23, 2016 - a load of bricks weighing 680 n a distance of 10 m across a parking lot. if if the worker pushes the cart with a constant force of 209 n, what work= force x distance = 220 n x 10 m = 2200 n.m = 2200 j i don't know where the person got it from, but the initial part, work= force x distance me.
