What is Mass?
Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object and its resistance to acceleration (inertia). The SI base unit is the kilogram (kg), now defined by fixing the Planck constant at h = 6.62607015 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s. Mass differs from weight: weight is the gravitational force acting on a mass (measured in newtons), while mass remains constant regardless of location. Common mass units include gram (g), milligram (mg), tonne (t = 1,000 kg), pound (lb), and ounce (oz).
