How you could find the mass and weight of an object on earth and the mass and weight of the same object on the moon?

Use a balance with standard masses to find the mass. You need only find the mass at one of the two locations. Find the weight using a spring balance.


What is the same mass and weight?

The mass of an object doesn't change, no matter where the object goes. The object's weight changes, depending on what other masses are nearby.


What property can you use to determine an unknown object?

weight


Can we use light to measure the weight of any object?

using the light alone to measure the weight of a unknown object is impossible.


Are objects masses?

Of course objects have mass because Mass is any object that has weight.


Can an object have mass without having weight?

Yes. An isolated mass (one without any other masses near it, where "near" is defined generously) has no discernible weight, and an object in freefall has mass but no weight.Yes. An object in free fall, for example, has mass but no weight.


The force of gravity on any object is called its?

The mutual force with which every two masses attract each other because of gravity is referred to as the "weight" of the objects.


Does an object floating in space have any mass?

Yes. The mass of the object doesn't change, no matter where it is. What does change is the object's weight, because that depends on what other masses are nearby.


If an object weight 500g in air and 400g in water. what is the upthrust on it?

We can't find the term "upthrust" in any of the myriad volumes in our vast reference library. If the object's weight balances the weight of a 500g standard while in air, and the weight of a 400g standard while in water, then the effect of the water is to produce an upward force on the object equal to the weight of a 100g standard, or 0.978 Newton. By Archimedes' principle, this is also the weight of the water displaced by the object, which tells us that the object has a volume very near 100 cc.


What is the mass at standard conditions if the weight of an object is 50 pounds?

An object that weighs 50 pounds at standard conditions has a mass of 22.680 kilograms.


What's more likely: an object whose mass is 0, or an object whose weight is 0?

If an object's mass is exactly zero, then the object does not exist. No mass means no atoms. However, an object can have no weight and still have a mass. The weight depends on the gravitational force.


How do you load calculate in building?

Building load is calculated by computing the volume of built masses and multiplying by standard weight. Divide it by the area of the surfaces of the masses which are touching the ground.
