Mass and weight have essentially the same meaning. To increase the weight of an object requires an increase in the mass of the object.

I think this is true because if you increase weight you also make atoms do something..... idk

I just started physics...........

Ok I think I get it do you mean that by increaseing weight your somewhat increasing the objects mass?

anonymous · Answer

But at the same time your not increasing it by how much your increasing the weight?

anonymous · Answer

weight is mass times gravitational acceleration, so weight does not equal mass,
though if one doubles, so does the other
