↑  See Mass in special relativity for a discussion of mass in this context. An object or particle does not have to be traveling very close to the speed of light, c, for its relativistic mass, M (or γm) to vary measurably from its rest mass m0. Per the Lorentz transformations and Einstein’s 1905 paper, The Special Theory of Relativity, relativistic mass is 0.5% greater than m0 at only 9.96% c, thus affecting measurements performed with a precision of 1%. Whereas 10% of the speed of light is exceedingly fast in most contexts, it is not "close to the speed of light".
↑  In professional metrology (the science of measurement), the acceleration of Earth’s gravity is taken as standard gravity (symbol: gn), which is defined as precisely ۷۰۰۰۹۸۰۶۶۵۰۰۰۰۰۰۰۰۰♠۹٫۸۰۶۶۵ meters per square second (m/s2). The expression "1 m/s2 " means that for every second that elapses, velocity changes an additional 1 meter per second. An acceleration of 1 m/s2 is the same rate of change in velocity as 3.6 km/h per second (≈2.2 mph per second).
↑  Objects the size of small dust particles, or smaller, are so strongly influenced by Brownian motion that they are no longer influenced by buoyancy.
↑  Assumptions: An air density of 1160 g/m3, an average density of a human body (with collapsed lungs) equal to that of water, and variations in barometric pressure rarely exceeding ±۲۲ تور (۲٫۹ کیلوپاسکال). Assumptions primary variables: An altitude of 194 meters above mean sea level (the worldwide median altitude of human habitation), an indoor temperature of 23 °C, a dewpoint of 9 °C, and ۷۶۰ میلی‌متر جیوه (۱۰۱ کیلوپاسکال) sea level–corrected barometric pressure.
↑  For example, for the recalibration of the US National Prototype Kilogram in 1985, two austenitic stainless steel artifacts were used for comparison. One, named D2, is similar to 18-8 (type 304) stainless (ie 18% Chromium, 8% Nickel); the other, named CH-1, is a more complex alloy that could be roughly designated as CrNiMo30-25-2 (chemical composition is 29.9% Cr, 25.1% Ni, 2.2% Mo, 1.45% Mn, 0.53 Si, 0.2% Cu, 0.07% C, 0.0019% P).Davis, R.

جرم یک ماده بسیاری از حرکات جنبشی آن ماده را تحت شعاع قرار می‌دهد.
فارغ از اینکه جسم در چه سیالی شناوره (گاز یا مایع), نیروی شناوری روی یک جسم برابر است با وزنی که آن سیال که جسم آن را جابه‌جا کرده.
بالون هوای گرم زمانی که دارای شناوری خنثی است، برای افرادی که آن را نگه داشته‌اند وزنی ندارد اما هنوز به علت داشتن جرم لختی بالایی دارد.
مقیاس توازن نوع وزن: تحت تأثیر نیروی جاذبه.
حسگر یا ترازوی خانگی: از قدرت جاذبه تأثیر می‌پذیرد.
