MASS
The property a body has of resisting any change in its
state of rest or of uniform motion is called inertia. The
inertia of a body is related to the amount of matter it
contains. A quantitative measure of inertia is mass.
The SI unit of mass is the kilogram (kg).
Tablecloth trick:
Too little force, too little time to
overcome "inertia" of tableware.

WEIGHT
The weight of a body is the gravitational force with
which the Earth attracts the body. Weight (a vector
quantity) is different from mass (a scalar quantity). The
weight of a body varies with its location near the Earth
(or other astronomical body), whereas its mass is the
same everywhere in the universe. The weight of a body
is the force that causes it to be accelerated downward
with the acceleration of gravity g.
From the Second Law of Motion:

COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION
The frictional force between two surfaces depends on
the normal (perpendicular) force N pressing them
together and on the natures of the surfaces. The latter
factor is expressed quantitatively in the coefficient of
friction (mu) whose value depends on the materials in
contact. The frictional force is experimentally found to
be:
