What is space something takes up called?

The volume.


What is the comparison of how heavy something is to the space it takes up?

Density is the word used to describe how much mass an object has per unit volume. How heavy something is (weight), is a function of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. How much space an object takes up is its volume.


What is an example of anything that has mass and takes up space?

An obvious example would be the computer/laptop/whatever you are typing into! Mass is defined as an object's resistance to changes in motion in its most simple form in Physics, or, perhaps, you have have learned it as the amount of matter in something. Well, going by the former definition, the computer you are typing into has mass because it resists changes in position, and it also takes up space (obviously).


What is the instrument that is used to measure the amount of space something takes up?

The instrument used to measure the amount of space something takes up is called a ruler or measuring tape. It is typically used for linear measurements, while tools like calipers or micrometers can be used for more precise measurements of three-dimensional objects.


How much time it takes to reach out-space to the space shuttle?

It takes about 8.5 minutes for a spacecraft to reach outer space from the surface of the Earth. This is known as the "space border," where the Earth's atmosphere transitions into the vacuum of space. Once a spacecraft crosses this boundary, it is considered to be in outer space.
