Of course. If it weighs 100 pounds on earth and you take it on a tour of a few
other places, you'll notice when you get to the moon that it weighs 16.3 pounds,
and 35.9 pounds later on Mars.
And that's not even considering the possibility that the object could have watched
its calories and sugar for the past two weeks, or eaten four steaks last night.
The weight of an object can change if you add or take away from it. It can also change if the gravity on itincreases on it because weight is just the amount of gravitational force acting on it.
Yes, the mass of the earth changes when meteors or other extra terrestrial bodies fall onto it. otherwise, it doesnt change at all, even during volcanic eruptions or due to population explotion or anything like that because everything comes from earth and goes back to earth...including you and me.
Technically, the question itself is sort of problematic! you shouldn't use the word "weight", use "mass" instead, because weight is a quantity related to the gravitational pull of earth itself (wich means also related to earths mass).
Weight is defined by the acceleration due to gravity acting on a mass, whereas mass is based on the size of the object.
If you were to move to a region of differing gravitational pull (ie. the moon), your mass would remain constant, while your weight will be lower due to lower gravity.
yes it can change and there are many ways how
i think.... the more of the object the more it weights. if u take away some of the object ( cut it or eat it) it will reduce the the weight
no
The mass of an object does not change , but its weight can vary.
Gravitygravity
Mass and Weight The gravitational force Earth exerts on an object is the weight of the object. Because weight is a force, it is measured in newtons. Weight is not the same as mass. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains, and is measured in kilograms. Even if the mass of an object doesn't change, its weight will change if its distance from Earth changes
No, the mass of an object is independent of where it is. The mass does not change. However, the weight (that is the product of mass and gravity acceleration) changes by change of the gravity. For example, the gravity on the moon is 1/6th that on earth. so, the object weight on the moon is 1/6th the same object weight on earth.
The object's weight depends on the local gravitational environment.The object's mass is constant in any environment.
The mass of an object does not change , but its weight can vary.
Such an object's mass would not change, or it wouldn't change significantly. Its weight will be reduced, approximately by a factor of 6.
No. The mass of an object doesn't change (Law of Conservation of Mass), therefore its weight won't change either (weight = mass x gravity).
The mass of an object does not change , but its weight can vary.
The mass of an object does not change , but its weight can vary.
No, the measured weight of an object WILL change but the mass of an object will never change regardless of the gravitational force on object.

Weight is gravitational force on an objects Mass. Mass don't change when gravity changes but the weight does.
Sure, if one object presses down on another object.
