  2. Weight - Wikipedia

    An object with mass m resting on a surface and the corresponding free body diagram of just the ... The distinction between mass and weight is unimportant for many ...

  3. Mass versus weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_versus_weight

    Usually, the relationship between mass and weight on Earth is highly proportional; objects that are a hundred times more massive than a one-liter bottle of soda almost always weigh a hundred times more—approximately 1,000 newtons, which is the weight one would expect on Earth from an object with a mass slightly greater than 100 kilograms.

  4. Molar mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_mass

    Molecular weight (M.W.) (for molecular compounds) and formula weight (F.W.) (for non-molecular compounds), are older terms for what is now more correctly called the relative molar mass (M r). [8] This is a dimensionless quantity (i.e., a pure number, without units) equal to the molar mass divided by the molar mass constant. [notes 1]

  5. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    However, the names of all SI mass units are based on gram, rather than on kilogram; thus 10 3 kg is a megagram (10 6 g), not a *kilokilogram. The tonne (t) is an SI-compatible unit of mass equal to a megagram (Mg), or 10 3 kg. The unit is in common use for masses above about 10 3 kg and is often used with SI prefixes.

  6. Mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass

    If a first body of mass m A is placed at a distance r (center of mass to center of mass) from a second body of mass m B, each body is subject to an attractive force F g = Gm A m B /r 2, where G = 6.67 × 10 −11 N⋅kg −2 ⋅m 2 is the "universal gravitational constant". This is sometimes referred to as gravitational mass.

  7. Effective mass (solid-state physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_mass_(solid...

    The name "density of states effective mass" is used since the above expression for N C is derived via the density of states for a parabolic band. In practice, the effective mass extracted in this way is not quite constant in temperature (N C does not exactly vary as T 3/2). In silicon, for example, this effective mass varies by a few percent ...

  8. Earth mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_mass

    An Earth mass (denoted as M 🜨, M ♁ or M E, where 🜨 and ♁ are the astronomical symbols for Earth), is a unit of mass equal to the mass of the planet Earth. The current best estimate for the mass of Earth is M 🜨 = 5.9722 × 10 24 kg, with a relative uncertainty of 10 −4. [2] It is equivalent to an average density of 5515 kg/m 3.

  9. Lever rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lever_rule

    The mass fraction of element B at the liquidus is given by w B l (represented as w l in this diagram) and the mass fraction of element B at the solidus is given by w B s (represented as w s in this diagram). The mass fraction of solid and liquid can then be calculated using the following lever rule equations: [1]
