What does it mean if two objects have the same mass but different volumes?
If the two objects have the same volume but different masses, the one with has a greater mass will have a higher density. For example each liter of gasoline and water don’t have the same masses.
Can two objects have the same mass but different weights?
The mass of an object is the same everywhere but weight varies based on gravity. For example, a person that has a mass of 100 kg on Earth will have a mass of 100 kg on the moon. However, weight will change as the force of gravity changes. Therefore, the same person will weigh less on the moon as they do on Earth.
What can you say about density when the mass stays the same but the volume changes?
If the mass of the object stays the same but the volume of the object decreases then its density becomes greater.
Does all objects having same volume have same density Why?
no ,its not necessary tht two objects have same volume have the same mass because the density of the material they are made up of can be different. Therefore, the objects can have different densities. However, if two objects have the same mass andvolume, they will have the same density.
Do different objects of the same volume always have the same density explain your answer?
Why do two objects with the exact same mass have different weights when one object is placed on earth and the other object is on the moon?
Weight is a measure of the force of gravity pulling down on an object. It depends on the object’s mass, which is how much matter the object contains. It also depends on the downward acceleration of the object due to gravity, which is the same all over Earth.
Does density vary with mass?
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.
How can different sized objects have the same density?
Density is an intensive property. This means that regardless of the object’s shape, size, or quantity, the density of that substance will always be the same. Even if you cut the object into a million pieces, they would still each have the same density. It is because density in an intensive property of matter.
How can one object float and the other sink when both objects have the same mass?
If an object has a higher density than the fluid it is in (fluid can mean liquid or gas), it will sink. If it has a lower density, it will float. Density is determined by an object’s mass and volume. If two objects take up the same volume, but have one has more mass, then it also has a higher density.
How can objects have the same volume but have different densities?
Density is mass per unit volume, so if two objects have different masses but the same volume, they will have different densities. This is possible because the particles of different substances have different masses and pack differently together.
How is density related to mass per volume?
Density is literally mass per volume. The more mass you have per volume, the higher your density is by definition. One with the heavier mass, as both occupy the same volume, more amount of mass has to be present in unit volume to accommodate for the extra weight.
Is it possible for two objects to have the same mass?
If you are measuring two identical materials at the same temperature and pressure they will have the same volumes. We can make things look like they have more volume (hollow sphere) but if you melted both spheres down they would fill the same amount of space. Is it possible for objects with different densities to have the same mass? Oh yes !
How are wights the same and diffferent volumes?
In question it says wights are the same and diffferent volumes so it seems that the one with more density should have a lower buyonacy force but you said that when an object floats the buoyancy force equals weight,so since both objects have the same weight,then buoynacy force should be equal in those two
