Even and object without mass can have weight? is this true

geerky42 (geerky42):

Weight is equal to mass times acceleration due to gravity. Now way object can have weight without mass

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

so mass is dependent on weight then

geerky42 (geerky42):

I would say weight is dependent on mass.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes that statement is true. without mass it can have weight

geerky42 (geerky42):

Explain how?

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

Weight can change and mass cannot is that why you said weight is dependent on mass?

geerky42 (geerky42):

Yeah, well I believe, because weight changes if gravity changes (if you bring this mass to the top of mountain or something)

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

ohh ok

geerky42 (geerky42):

Ya, weight is basically depend on how strong gravity is.
