From: glird on 1 Aug 2010 13:17 Since a force is a net pressure, and the textbooks say that weight is a force, a gram is a unit of weight and force. Another unit of force is a dyne. The textbook definition of a dyne is a dyne is that force which will produce an acceleration of 1 cm per second per second when acting on a mass of 1 gram". ("Mass" denotes a quantity of matter. As such, it too is a dimension.) Though the quantity of atomic matter in different bodies is proportionate to their respective weight, unstructured matter [now called "dark matter"] has no weight. A gram, however, is a quantity of weight, which is a force. Therefore a gram and an ounce are the wrong units of measure for a quantity of matter!

Even he got this right. Mark L. Fergerson

A kilogram is a unit of mass. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram It's weight depends on which planet you measure it on. |
