Mass
,no edit summary
: [[Mass]] is a [[scalar]] quantity as it has [[magnitude]] but does not have a direction.
The [[unit]]s of [[mass]] you should be able to use are:
*[[Megagram]]s: Also known as [[tonne]]stons. There are 1000kg in one [[megagram]].
*[[Kilogram]]s: For [[object]]s that can be lifted by [[human]]s.
*[[Gram]]s: For quantities of [[chemical]]s used in a [[Chemical Reaction|chemical reactions]]. There are 1000g in 1 [[kilogram]].
*[[Milligram]]s: For doses of [[medicine]]. There are 1000,000mg in a [[kilogram]].
*[[Microgram]]s: For [[Vitamin]]s and other [[micronutrient]]smicronutrients. There are 1000,000,000µg in a [[kilogram]].
*[[Nanogram]]s: The [[mass]] of [[Cell (Biology)|cells]] in [[organism]]s. There are 1000,000,000,000ng in a [[kilogram]].
<math>m = \frac{Force}{acceleration}</math>
Where:
<math>m</math> = The '''Inertial Mass''' of the [[object]].
