Mass: The mass is the total content of the body which measures the inertia of a body. It is a scalar quantity and its SI unit is kilogram. Irrespective of the position of the body in the universe, mass always remains constant everywhere. The mass of the body cannot be zero.
Inertial mass and Gravitational mass:
Inertial mass: Inertial mass of a of a body is related to its inertia of linear motion, and is defined by newton's second law of motion.
Let a body of mass m moves with acceleration a underaction of an external force F. According to the Newton's second law of motion
The mass of the body in this sense is called as the inertial mass of the body. If a = 1, then from above equation m = F
Thus inertial mass of a body is equal to the magnitude of external force required to produce unit acceleration in the body.
Gravitational mass:
Gravitational mass of a body is related to gravitational pull of the body and is defined by Newton's law of gravitation.If a body of mass is placed on the surface of the earth of radius R and mass M,then gravitational pull on the body is given by
The mass of the body in this sense is the gravitational mass of the body. The inertia oft he body has no effect on the gravitational mass of the body.If J = 1 then from the equation = F.
Thus gravitational mass of the body is defined as the magnitude of gravitational pull experienced by the body in gravitational field of unit intensity.

I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
