it is common to confuse weight with mass. the mass of an object refers to the amount of _____ that is contained by the object, while weight is the ___ force acting upon that object. mass is related to how much stuff there is, and weight is related to the _____ of the earth upon that stuff.

the mass of an object (measured in kiligram ) will be the _same_ no matter where in the universe that object is located. mass is never ___ by location, the pull of gravity, speed, or even the existence of other forces. for example, a 2 kg object will have a mass of 2 kg whether it is located on earth, the moon, or ___; its mass will be 2 kg whether it is moving or not, and its mass will be _____ whether it is being pushed or not.

on the other hand, the _____ of an object (measured in newtons) will vary according to where in the ___ the object is. weight depends upon which ___ is exerting the gravitational force. weight, being equivalent to gravitational force, is dependent upon the value of ___ - the planet’s gravitational field strength, which is always the same as its 2kg__ due to gravity. on or near earth’s surface, g is 9.8 n/kg or 9.8 m/s². on the moon’s surface, g is 1.7 n/kg. so, using the equation $f_g = mg$, a 2 kg object will have a weight of 20 n on earth, and a weight of 3.4n____ on the moon. a table of values of g for different

Explanation:

To solve the fill - in - the - blanks, we analyze the concepts of mass and weight:

1. First blank (mass definition): Mass is the amount of "matter" an object contains. This is a fundamental definition of mass in physics.
2. Second blank (weight definition): Weight is the "gravitational" force acting on an object. Weight is a force due to gravity.
3. Third blank (weight - gravity relation): Weight is related to the "pull" of the Earth (or any celestial body) on the object. Gravity exerts a pulling force.
4. Fourth blank (mass unit): Mass is measured in "kilograms" (the unit was misspelled as "kiligram" in the original, but the correct unit is kilograms).
5. Fifth blank (mass constancy): The mass of an object is the "same" everywhere in the universe. Mass is an intrinsic property.
6. Sixth blank (mass invariance): Mass is never "altered" by location, gravity, speed, or other forces. It is a constant property of the object.
7. Seventh blank (example of location): For example, a 2 kg object has the same mass on Earth, the moon, or "Jupiter" (another planet).
8. Eighth blank (mass constancy in force): Its mass will be "2 kg" (same as before) whether it is pushed or not.
9. Ninth blank (weight definition): The "weight" of an object (measured in Newtons) varies with location.
10. Tenth blank (weight's dependence on universe): Weight varies according to where in the "universe" the object is.
11. Eleventh blank (weight - planet relation): Weight depends on which "planet" is exerting the gravitational force.
12. Twelfth blank (weight formula): Weight depends on the value of "g" (the gravitational field strength).
13. Thirteenth blank (g and acceleration): "g" is the same as the "acceleration" due to gravity (since \(F_g = mg\) and from \(F = ma\), \(a = g\) in the context of gravity).
