If equal forces are applied to a light and a heavy object which one will accelerate more?
the light one
How does a heavy object have the same volume as a light object?
It could be two items of the same size, but made out of different materials, for instance, one made of aluminum, and another made of iridium.
What object falls faster a heavy object or a light object in a vacuum?
They both fall at the same rate. This is because they are both only acted upon by one force in the vacuum- gravitational acceleration. The mass, size or shape of the object do not influence the object's motion in a vacuum.
Does a heavier object always have more inertia than a lighter object?
Inertia is "rotary momentum"; an object's ability to continue spinning when a decelerating force is applied.Just as a heavy object takes more effort to stop from the same speed as a light object, so does a heavy object take more effort to stop from turning at the same speed as a light object.So assuming they are turning at the same angular velocity, the heavier one has a larger inertia. Otherwise, remember that inertia is also proportional to angular velocity.
When all of the forces on an object cancel one another out the forces are said to be?
Balanced forces
What stops first a heavy object or a light one?
A light object has less momentum than a heavy object. A light object would stop first.
If equal forces are applied to a light and a heavy object which one will accelerate more?
the light one
What instrament is used to measure the mass of something?
A balanced scale, which compares the mass of one object with that of a known quantity.

Is it bad if you have a heavy period on one month and a light one the next month?
No it is not bad, as some ladies have a heavy period for one month and then a light one or they may have two heavy periods and then one light one also.
What is one example of a force that does not cause an object to move?
Balanced forces.
Why a heavy object does not falle faster than a light object?
When heavy objects roll down something, fricition is involved. Friction is made by the rubbing of one thing against the other. Try rubbing your hands together reallly fast. Do your hands feel warm? Heavy objects have more friction, which slows down the heavy object. Lighter objects have less friction which cause it to run faster.

What are the laboratory instruments used to measure the mass of an object?
A balanced scale, which compares the mass of one object with that of another.
Is your truck light duty or heavy duty?
The one I own is light duty. The one I drive for work is heavy duty.
What do you determine mass with?
A balanced scale, which compares the mass of one object with that of another.
