In the physical sciences, the weight of an object is the magnitude, W, of the force that must be applied to an object in order to support it (i.e. hold it at rest) in a gravitational field. The weight of an object equals the magnitude of the gravitational force acting on the object, less the effect of its buoyancy in any fluid in which it might be immersed. [1] Near the surface of the Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is approximately constant; this means that an object's weight near the surface of the Earth is roughly proportional to its mass. In practical or everyday applications, weight means the same as mass as that term is used in physics.[1][2] In modern scientific usage, however, weight and mass are fundamentally different quantities mass is an intrinsic property of matter, whereas weight is a force that results from the action of gravity on matter it measures how strongly gravity pulls on that matter. However, the recognition of this difference is historically a relatively recent development and in many everyday situations the word "weight" continues to be used when, strictly, "mass" is meant. For example, most people would say that an object "weighs one kilogram", even though the kilogram is a unit of mass. The distinction between mass and weight is unimportant for many practical purposes because the strength of gravity is very similar everywhere on the surface of the Earth. In such a constant gravitational field, the gravitational force exerted on an object (its weight) is directly proportional to its mass. For example, object A weighs 10 times as much as object B, so therefore the mass of object A is 10 times greater than that of object B. This means that an object's mass can be measured indirectly by its weight (for conversion formulas see below)

24. Why is a Spa so Enticing
November 05, 2009
What is it that makes a Hot Tub Spa so enticing?
Well one of the most attractive points in using a Spa Hot Tub is the buoyancy effect provided by the water. Well for a minute we should consider what buoyancy is and why we can float in water.
It is simply that our specific gravity is less than water. Specific gravity can be defined as the weight of the item in question divided by the weight of an equal volume of water so for example the specific gravity of water is one. Another way of putting it is that if the item in question when submerged in water has a weight lower that an equal v... (read more)
