We all know the confusion between Mass and Weight, from the language barrier. Would I be correct to say that:
On Earth
Bathroom weigh scales = 100kg. Mass therefore is 100kg. Weight = 981N
On the Moon
Bathroom weigh scales = 16.7kg. Mass is still 100kg. Weight = 167N
In Space, (away from any gravitational pull)
Bathroom Weigh scales = 0kg. Mass is still 100kg. Weight = 0N
On Earth
Bathroom weigh scales = 100kg. Mass therefore is 100kg. Weight = 981N
On the Moon
Bathroom weigh scales = 16.7kg. Mass is still 100kg. Weight = 167N
