just realized this is science not math O_o Determine if each description is mass or weight. Drag each description into the correct category.

This remains the same on the moon as on Earth.


This results from the pull of gravity.


This relates to the amount of matter in an object.


This will change in space.


mass(this is a category) weight (this is a category)

sorry i just realized its not mathematics O_o

This remains the same on the moon as on Earth.  --> MASS

This results from the pull of gravity.  --> WEIGHT

This relates to the amount of matter in an object.  --> MASS

This will change in space.  --> WEIGHT

mass is a SCALAR, weight is a VECTOR

Step-by-step explanation:

In physics:

- The mass of an object is a scalar quantity that gives a measure of the "amount of matter" in an object. It is an intrinsec property of the object, therefore its value does not depend on the location of the object.

- The weight of an object is the force of gravitational attraction exerted on the object. Being a force, it has a magnitude and a direction. Its magnitude is given by

[tex]F=mg[/tex]

where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity at the location of the object. Therefore, its value depends on the location.

Now we can identify correctly each statement given:

This remains the same on the moon as on Earth.  --> MASS

This results from the pull of gravity.  --> WEIGHT

This relates to the amount of matter in an object.  --> MASS

This will change in space.  --> WEIGHT

mass is a SCALAR, weight is a VECTOR
