If you measure the mass of a movjng object as it moves through your laboratory,

you'll always find that it has more mass than it had when it was just sitting on the

shelf. The faster it's moving through your laboratory, the greater its mass will be.

It doesn't matter whether it's accelerating or not.

If the mass of an object in space increases what happen to its gravitational attraction to other objects in space?

That also increases.


How is the cosmological motion of a distant galaxy fundamentally different from the motion of an object speeding through space?

The object - planet, meteoroid, comet, spaceship - is traveling THROUGH space; the galaxy is moving away WITH space. That is, the space itself is expanding.


How fast do objects go in free fallouter space?

You can't fall in space, there is no gravity. An object will travel as fast as it is accelerated and continue at that speed forever as there is no air resistence to slow it down.


What happens to the mass of a speeding object in space?

Recall a fundamental postulate of relativity -- that one can not define the velocity of an object except in reference to a frame. Thus, we can NOT say an object is "speeding" unless we also define against which frame we are making measurements. In an object's own frame, its own mass never changes. In a frame that views such an object as "speeding," the mass of the object will be greater than it is in its own frame. Not "mistaken to be" greater, not "viewed as" greater, not "seems to be" greater, not "appears to be" greater. The mass IS greater in that second frame.


What happens to the buoyant force when the amount of space an object takes up underwater is increased?

If the mass of an object remains constant, and the amount of space underwater it takes up (it displacement) increases, the buoyant force on the object will increase. The object will rise until it regains equilibrium, when it displaces the same mass of water as its own mass.


Compaere object space and image space?

The object model is said to reside in object space. we can covert object space units of measure to image space by scaling transformation method.


How far can a space shuttle travel?

There is no gravity therfore it will travel forever slowly speeding up and eventually travelling at 99.999% of the speed of light, if this object collides with another it will create a big bang


Can you see volume?

Volume can and is seen. The volume of an object is comprised of the space that it occupies in three dimension. The units of volume are cubic units of space. Volume increases visually, no matter what the material is that is increasing in volume.


How is mass and weight alike?

Weight is mass, when accelerated by a gravitational pull. In space you are weightless, but still have mass. The same object will weigh less at the top of a mountain, because there is slightly less gravity. It will still be the same object and therefore have the same unchanging mass.


Is the amount of space an object takes space?

The object's "volume".


What is the amount of space is an object takes up?

The amount of space that an object takes up is known as its volume.Volume is how much space takes up in an object


What is it when a object in space blocks out another object in space?

It is called an eclipse.
