Question

What can be described as a measure of the amount of matter or material an object contains as well as taking gravitational pull into account?

density

volume

weight

mass

Answer 1

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.
