The quantity of heaviness; comparative tendency to the center of the earth; the quantity of matter as estimated by the balance, or expressed numerically with reference to some standard unit; as, a mass of stone having the weight of five hundred pounds.

Normally indicated as the average weight per square yard of fabric. There is always a manufacturing tolerance on either side of this average weight which may range from 3% to 8% depending on the product. Example: A 16 oz. polyester felt has a weight tolerance of + 1 oz.
Weight of item expressed in carats, grams or ounces (troy) as appropriate (1 gram = approximately 5 carats) (1 ounce (troy) = approximately 31 grams)

The actual weight of the projector minus power cord, bag, and other optional accessories. InFocus designs and builds some of the lightest projectors on the market.
A whole number value (positive or negative) that is assigned to every category or container. Categories and containers are often sorted according to weight, with those of the lightest weight 'floating' to the top, and those of the heaviest weight 'sinking' to the bottom. Where categories or containers have an equal weight, their order is determined alphabetically by their title.
A letter's relative amount of blackness. Proper terminology for weight has never been precisely determined. In types used for continuous reading, two weights are generally used - the original design, called either regular or light, and a boldface. Square serif and sans serif types have as many as eight or nine different weights, differently described by each manufacturer. Most likely this imprecision can never be corrected.

The a-weight of a string, for a a letter, is the number of times that letter occurs in the string. More precisely, let A be a finite set (called the alphabet), a\in A a letter of A, and c\in A^* a string (where A^* is the free monoid generated by the elements of A, equivalently the set of strings, including the empty string, whose letters are from A). Then the a-weight of c, denoted by \mathrm{wt}_a(c), is the number of times the generator a occurs in the unique expression for c as a product (concatenation) of letters in A.
Weight is the seventh release (excluding singles and promotional discs) and the fourth full-length studio album by the Rollins Band, released on April 12, 1994 (see 1994 in music). A music video for "Liar", directed by Anton Corbijn was also released.
A Formula One car must weigh at least 600 kilograms, including the driver but not including the fuel. With a full tank, it weighs about 700 kilos. The cars themselves are actually as much as 70 kilos lighter, but the teams distribute additional weights throughout them to improve driveability.
Many karting classes mandate a minimum weight for kart and driver (combined), so you might have to add some extra weight to your kart. Oftentimes lead weights are used, similar to the ones used by divers. But people tend to be innovative here. It is very important where you place these weights in order to get a good weight distribution, which will dramatically affect your handling. Also, the weight should be securely mounted to the frame. Don't forget that you yourself are also a weight. See seat, handling.
In an artificial neural network, the strength of a connection between two neurons.
An element of a weight matrix. A connection between two neurons with a value that is dynamically changed during a neural net's learning process.
See Counterweight and Brace Weight. Also, instruction given to rookie stage crew on errand to hardware supplier ; "Go and get me a long weight".
A weight seems to be the ideal loading element. A weight is ideal as long as the gas system being controlled is relatively stable. This design suffers from instability when controlling a fast, transient flow. This is due to the tendency of the weight to continue in motion (inertia). This creates a pressure overshoot. Also, the mounting orientation is limited to one position where the weight can act correctly. The weight has to be positioned directly above the diaphragm. existence and severity of recorded defects.
verb, "ponderare" (termine statistico)
To assign a weight to; to express by a number the probable accuracy of, as an observation. See Weight of observations, under Weight.

Must be specified according to Gross Weight, which is the weight of an article plus the weight of the container and packaging. Net Weight, which is the actual weight of the contents of a container; and Tare Weight, which is the weight of an empty container and any packaging materials used in the container.
In shipping, weight is qualified further as gross (weight of goods and container), net (weight of goods themselves without any container), and legal (similar to net, determined in such manner as law of particular country/jurisdiction may direct).

The weight of a space ''X'' is the smallest cardinal number κ such that ''X'' has a base of cardinal κ. (Note that such a cardinal number exists, because the entire topology forms a base, and because the class of cardinal numbers is well-ordered.)

The number of buildings in the United States that a particular building in the sample represents. To estimate the total value of an attribute (such as square footage) in the U.S. commercial buildings population as a whole, each sample building's value is multiplied by the building's weight. Summing (aggregating) the weighted sample values provides an estimate of the national total.
