A common misconception in science is treating mass and weight as the same thing.
Earth vs. Moon comparison.
📐 The Physics Breakdown:Mass:
Measured in kilograms (kg). It is a scalar quantity representing inertia and matter.
Weight: Measured in Newtons (N). It is a vector quantity that depends on the local acceleration due to gravity (g).
Stronger gravity on Earth means a stronger pull on your mass. Weaker gravity on the Moon means less pull.
