Yes. If the object is in a lower gravitational pull, like the object is in the moon then it can float. But if it the object is in the Earth ,then the object will not float, also in water. But boats and ships are different cos it has a property or structure that make them float.

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.


Does greater mass in an object have a higher resistance to a change in movement?

Yes. Force= mass times acceleration if mass is large the force is large.


Why is it easier too change the motion of an object with a large mass than an object with a small mass?

It is not! According to Newton's law the exact opposite is true.


Will an object float if the volume is bigger than its mass?

If these measurements are made in cubic cemtimeters (volume) and grams (mass) this is true. But, if mass is from the english system, (not really pounds, it is slugs, but who knows what a slug is?) and the volume is cubic feet, this is not true.


Solubility describes how well an object will float true or false?

true


Is it true that when the weight of an object is less than the density of water that object the object will float?

The weight does not determine if an object will float in water. If an object has a DENSITY that is more than the density of water then it will sink, if it's density is less than the density of water it will float.


Is it true that momentum is not equal to the mass of an object divided by its velocity?

That is true because momentum is mass times velocity


Is it true mass is a mesure of force that an object has?

No.


What is the true definition of mass?

Mass is defined as the amount of matter in an object.


Is it true that the more mass a object has the more gravity pulls on it?

No, the more mass of an object the more gravity it exerts.


What is an object with a greater density than water will float in water is it true or false?

False


Is it true or false-object oriented systems can scale up better from small to large?

True
