Does a small object always have less mass than a larger object?

not all the time but sometimes you can tell by the weight or sometimes you cant lift it to see how much mass is in it

What does weight have to do with matter?
Matter is what is in an object...it is what something is made of.Weight is the effect of gravity on an object.The more matter in an object, the greater effect gravity has on that object, making it weigh more than another object with less matter.Don't forget that size does not always show how heavy something is...If you have a small object which is really dense (contains a lot of matter), it may weight more than a larger object with a low density.
What is the relationship between the mass of an object and it overall size?
No direct relationship. There are small cotton balls that have less mass than battleships,and there are large blocks of styrofoam that have less mass than small stones.All you can say for sure is that if you have two chunks of the same substance,then the larger one has more mass.
Why do two objects with different mass will fall at the same time?
-- It takes more force to accelerate an object with more mass. ... Gravity exerts more force on an object with more mass. -- It takes less force to accelerate an object with less mass. ... Gravity exerts less force on an object with less mass. Whatever the mass of the object happens to be, gravity always exerts just the right amount of force to accelerate it at always the same rate ... 9.8 meters per second2.
Why doesn't a heavier rock fall faster when the force of gravity is twice as much on two kg object verse a one kg object?
Because it takes more force to give a larger mass the same acceleration. So it all balances out ... less force of gravity on a smaller mass, more force of gravity on a larger mass, always produces the same acceleration.
What are four ways to increase the acceleration of an object?
Apply a larger force. Make the object less massive. Decrease air resistance acting on the object. Decrease the coefficients of friction by using a 'smooth' surface, where friction is negligible.
Do larger object weighs more than smaller object?
Seeing as a bouncy beach ball is larger than many small things that weigh more, such as a stool, and plenty of other objects are larger and weigh less, no.
What is always true of an object with a lot of mass?
Such an object makes a larger dent in the fabric of space-time than an object with little mass. (It has a greater gravitational attraction than less massive objects)A greater force is required to accelerate such an object than a less massive object
Does the larger item always have the greater mass?
No. If the density of the item is less, the mass may be less, even if the object is larger. Cannon ball and a beach ball. Low density beach ball has far less mass than the VERY dense cannon ball, even though the beach ball is larger.

What object would hit earth?
It is quite common for small meteors to hit the Earth. Larger impacts by an asteroid or comet are also possible but happen much less often.
Why does the weight of an object decrease with increase in distance from the centre of the earth?
Because Earth's gravity is becoming less and less with the larger amount of distance between it and the object.
why does an object with less mass have larger acceleration?
Whenna given force is applied ,an oobject with greater mass will accelerate less
Is 0.25 larger than 0.3?
No because 0.25 is less than 0.3

How does a knife decrease the force or the distance?
Because the size of the objects determine the speed and force of the object, the smaller the object, the higher the speed and the less force is applied whereas a larger object will apply more force and less speed.
What is symbol indicating less than?
The symbol for less then is <, think of it as a gator mouth. the opening is always facing the larger #
