    Recall that mass is the amount of matter present in a body. That means it's a property that is consistent regardless of the body's current location, gravity's pull on the body, etc.

    Let's not confuse mass with weight (which is a force computed as Weight = mass x acceleration). Mass will remain constant and that means that whether the object is on Earth or on Mars, its mass remains the same. Thus, the object will still have 2.00 kg as mass on Mars.

    Answers: 2.00 kilograms
