No. A really big cotton ball weighs less than a comparably sized ball of iron.

The mass of an object is a fundamental property of the object; a numerical measure of its inertia; a fundamental measure of the amount of matter in the object. To answer your question, it depends on the density of the mass, the more dense, the more it will weigh depending on gravitational conditions.

No, not always.

By playing with physical forumlas, mass = volume * density, so just because something is large (has a large volume) does not mean it has a large mass, because it could not be very dense. Like air, all the air in your house is pretty big (it's the size of your house), but it only has a few kg of mass, while a block of gold, can be small, but still heavy.

No, an example being an object weighing 200lbs on Earth would weigh 0 pounds in space. Weight is affected by gravity, mass remains constant.

yes, mass and weight are the same thing. mass is just the scientific name for weight.

Not necessarily. You have to take into account what the objects are made of and whether or not they are hollow or partly hollow.

No. A pillow is larger than a brick, but a brick has greater mass. The pillow is less dense.

Is it easier to find the mass of an object with a large mass or smaller mass?

Large mass


How can an object with a large mass have the same acceleration as a an object with an small mass?

The large mass can have proportionately more force applied to it than to the smaller mass.


Does a large object always have a greater mass than a small object?

Yes , because a large object takes up more space than a smaller object larger object has more space inside it. It will depend on if the ball is flat.


Will a smaller object always have a smaller mass?

No, it depends on the degree of compactment of its individual molecules or matter.


Why is it easierto change the motion of an object with a large ass then an object with a smaller mass?

According to Newton's laws of motion, it is not.


Does the density of an object depend on its size?

The density of an object is directly correlated with the amount of mass contained in the object. For example, a small object containing a large amount of mass has more density than a larger object with a smaller amount of mass.


Do objects that take up more space always have more mass?

No. A large object with a low density can have a lower mass than a smaller but denser object. for example, a 10 centimeter cubic block of ice has a mass of about 0.92 kilograms. A 5 centimeter block of (one eighth the volume) has a mass of 2.4 kilograms.


Do object that have large masses always have large weights?

well if it has little mass it has little weight and if you have a lot of mass the possibility of it would be that it weights a lot


Would an object with a larger mass have more kinetic energy than an object with a smaller mass?

Maybe and maybe not. It depends on the speed of the two objects. A small object moving very fast might have more kinetic energy than a large object moving slowly.


Would a large or small object be easier to stop?

The physical size doesn't matter. The ability to stop (or start) an object depends on its mass. For example, a bowling ball has more mass than a large balloon or sofa cushion. Smaller masses are easier to stop (or start).


In order for a small object to have a large momentun the object needs to be stationary true or false?

False. The momentum of an object is given by the mass times the velocity of the object. Hence, a low-mass object must have a large velocity to have a large momentum.


What does the mass of an object tell you about its inertia?

An object with a large mass is harder to get moving and harder to stop than an object with less mass. I hope this helps
