Anything that has mass takes up space. Even air has mass.
A mass can have the following effects:
-- You could apply a force to a lump of it, measure its acceleration, and
show that it obeys the formula [ F = M A ] .
-- You could accelerate it to 75% of the speed of light, then perform the
above action on it, and show that its mass appears to have increased 15%
since it was standing still in the lab, which shows that it's obeying the formula
for the relativistic increase of mass at high speed.
anything that takes up space space is mass so think about it does chalk take up space
Put it on a balance and determine its mass.
Galileo's experiment to show that mass had little effect on the speed of falling objects involved two cannonballs of different sizes being dropped from a certain height. This showed that, in a vacuum at least, falling objects fall at the same speed no matter their mass.
That the Law of Conservation of Matter has been proven to be true once again. I could also conclude that the experiment occured within a closed sytem where no gas was lost. So many conclusions, so little time.
Yes, any matter has a mass.
Matter does.
as mass is the quantity of matter contained in a body
if it has mass
The classical definition says anything that occupies space is matter. To prove air occupies space we can do a small experiment. Take a balloon and blow air in it. The balloon expands and this proves that air occupies space. And thus we can prove air is matter.
An experiment can prove or disprove a hypothesis.
Prove causation
Mass is a property of matter it can not be changed in any experiment. For this reason the wording of your question does not make sense and therefore can not be answered.
Experiment
That depends on the result of the experiment. The experiment is a way to test a hypothesis, and it's completely fine if the experiment disproves the hypothesis. Ideally, though, the experiment will support the hypothesis.
Galileo
to prove it worked.
An experiment can prove they are wrong or right ...:)
This was an experiment to prove universal gravitation!
An experiment can show: Cause and effect (Apex).
