Masses By Franz Schubert
Mass is the quantity of matter in a physical body and a measure of the body's inertia. Mass or Maß may also refer to: Arts, entertainment, and media Music *Mass (music), a choral composition that sets liturgical text to music *Mass (Stravinsky), ''Mass'' (Stravinsky), a composition by Igor Stravinsky *Mass (Bernstein), ''Mass'' (Bernstein), a musical theater work by Leonard Bernstein *Mass (English band), a post-punk band *Mass (Grotus album), ''Mass'' (Grotus album), 1996 *Mass (Alastair Galbraith album), ''Mass'' (Alastair Galbraith album), 2011 *Mass (The Gazette album), ''Mass'' (The Gazette album), 2021 *The Mass (album), ''The Mass'' (album), by musical project Era Other uses in arts, entertainment, and media * Mass (2004 film), ''Mass'' (2004 film), Indian Telugu-language film * Mass (2021 film), ''Mass'' (2021 film), American drama film *Mass (novel), ''Mass'' (novel), a 1973 novel by Filipino author F.

Mass
Mass is an intrinsic property of a body. It was traditionally believed to be related to the quantity of matter in a physical body, until the discovery of the atom and particle physics. It was found that different atoms and different elementary particles, theoretically with the same amount of matter, have nonetheless different masses. Mass in modern physics has multiple definitions which are conceptually distinct, but physically equivalent. Mass can be experimentally defined as a measure of the body's inertia, meaning the resistance to acceleration (change of velocity) when a net force is applied. The object's mass also determines the strength of its gravitational attraction to other bodies. The SI base unit of mass is the kilogram (kg). In physics, mass is not the same as weight, even though mass is often determined by measuring the object's weight using a spring scale, rather than balance scale comparing it directly with known masses.
