Does the mass of an object change if the volume changes?

Does the mass of an object change if the volume changes?

As the volume of the material increases, the mass will also increase. The greater the volume of the object the greater the number of atoms present. This will result in the object having greater mass.

Can the weight of an object be changed without altering the object’s mass?

Yes, it is possible. The downward force of gravity plays a very important role in this scenario. Since weight measures the downward force of gravity that is generated on an object, it may change depending on its location. However, mass remains constant even the object changes its location.

Is it possible for an object to change its weight without changing its mass and why?

Why does volume change but mass does not?

As density is inversely proportional to volume, if volume of an object increases, the density of the object decreases when mass remains the same. Thus the density of the object decreases if the volume of an object increases but the mass stays the same.

What happens if volume goes up and mass stays the same?

If the volume stays the same, then an increase in mass will cause an increase in density. However, an increase in mass along with an increase in volume can give rise to no increase in density, which would describe an intensive property.

How does a change in mass and or volume affect the density of an object?

Density is the amount of mass located in a specific volume. The density of an object can change if either the mass or volume of the object is changed. If an object is more dense than water, it will sink; if it is less dense than water, it will float.

Is it possible for an object’s weight to change?

Is it possible for an object’s weight to change while its mass remains constant? Yes! An objects weight will change on the moon but mass will be the same. Volume is the amount of space that matter in an object occupies.

How can the weight of an object change while the mass of that object stays the same?

The weight of an object will change if the object is brought farther away from Earth, or placed on a different planet, since the force of gravity on the object will change. However the mass of the object will remain the same regardless of whether the object is on Earth, in outer space, or on the Moon.

Can you think of a scenario when the mass of an object would not change but its weight would describe this scenario?

The relevant feature of momentum here is that it resists changes to its speed. In particular, for our relativistic egg, the faster and faster it goes, the more momentum it has, so the harder it is to speed it up any more — you need to start expending truly ludicrous amounts of energy to speed it up even a little bit.

How could your weight vary from one place to another even though your mass stays the same?

Your weight could vary from one place to another even though your mass remains the same because of the different gravitational pulls depending on your location. (Example: the different gravitational pulls of the Earth, Moon, Mars, etc.)

Which change is greater volume or mass?

change in volume is more because change in volume /mass which equal to 68.5% and change in mass which 0.9/2.1 equal to 42.85% 3.

How does increasing the volume without increasing the mass affect density?

If volume increases without an increase in mass, then the density decreases (Fig.
