    An object's weight is

    (its mass) x (the acceleration of gravity wherever the object is).

    The acceleration of gravity on or near the Earth's surface is about 9.8m/s².

    So an object with 10kg of mass, as long as it's located on or near the

    Earth's surface, weighs

    (10 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 98 kg-m/s² = 98 Newtons.

    That's about 22.05 pounds.

    If you take the object somewhere else, it's still 10 kg of mass, but

    it weighs something different, depending on the gravity of the place

    where you take it.
