Weight vs Mass
In everyday language, "weight" commonly refers to measurements such as kilograms and pounds, and that's the sense this tool uses. Technically, in physics, the kilogram is a unit of mass, while weight is a force (measured in newtons) caused by gravity acting on that mass. For everyday conversions \u2014 cooking, shipping, fitness, shopping \u2014 the common usage is what matters, and that's exactly what this converter handles.
