Yes, as long as they're both in the same place on the earth's surface, or the same place

on the moon's surface. If they're both subject to the same gravitational acceleration, then

equal masses have equal weights.

Why does an object with twice the mass of another weigh twice as much?

In the same gravity, downward force (weight) is directly proportional to the mass. (F=mA) If you had two objects of equal mass, and combined them, the weight would be the same as the total of the two.


When an object is submerged will it weigh less or have less mass?

Objects under water seem to weigh less but they have the same mass as they would out of water.


Can you weigh density?

No. Density is a ratio; it is mass divided by volume. Anything that you can weigh has a non-zero density, but the weight of the thing is related to its mass and the gravity where it is being measured. You could have two objects of vastly different density, but the weight of the objects could be the same.


Do all objects weigh the same amount when placed in a vaccum regardless of their mass?

No. In a vacuum, the weight of an object will be the product their mass, times the gravity. In other words, objects with different masses will have different weights.


If two equal liquids turn into a solid which is the heaviest?

Equal in volume? The heavier on would be the denser one. Equal in mass? They would weigh the same.


Do objects of the same mass of different shape fall at the same rate?

In the absence of air, yes they do. In air, they don't. As an example, consider a sailplane and a rock with equal mass.


What weighs the same no matter how big it is?

If I understood your question right, then any two or more objects will weigh the same if they contain equal amount of the same substance.


Do objects on other planets weigh the same as they weigh on Earth?

No. Weight is the measure of how much force a planet pulls an object, that force is determined by the planet's mass and radius, and each planet has a different mass and radius.


Would a plane weigh more on the ground or in the air?

Technically, it would weigh the same as long as gravity is constant and mass is constant. Weight is equal to mass times gravity W=mg


Why do objects have different mass?

Objects have different mass because they not weighted the same..


Can objects with the same mass have the same volume?

no


Collision two objects equal mass which one experiences the greater force of impact?

both experience the same impact
