Abstract
The mass concept is one of the fundamental concepts of classical mechanics and physics at all. In addition, the kilogram of the SI base unit for mass. For all the problems with the unification of physical theory building, we find in a mass-term physical all disciplines concerned term. There is no physical area in which the mass plays no role. Whether, for example, in the Newtonian mechanics, special and general relativity theory or quantum mechanics, appears throughout the important mass on size. And yet looking for a meaningful definition of mass vain. The handling of this size is fundamental to a number of historically conditioned prejudices out what their origin can be found in the ideas that we commonly with the mechanical movement in connection brings. Only when Newton took the mass concept somewhat shape. However, the development of physics until today not to issue a clarification of what was actually mass.
