Does a rock by the side of the road have momentum?
Since the Earth is rotating, and moving through space, and the rock is moving along with the Earth, then it does, but relative to the Earth, I'd say that the momentum of the rock (mass * velocity) is essentially zero.
What is a measurement of distance in space called?
Lightyears
What do you a call a mass slow-moving ice is called?
glacier
A deep wedge shaped opening in a moving mass of ice called a glacier is called?
It is called a crevasse.
What is a stony or metallic mass that falls to the Earth's surface from outer Space?
it is called meteorite
Are electrons moving through space called light?
Electrons are very small, and have very small mass, but they are not visible light (photons).
What is anything that has mass and occupies space?
Matter
How are meteorite and meteoroid related to each other?
A meteoroid is a small mass of something moving through space. A meteorite is defined as a piece of such that actually lands on Earth.
Does the mass of a speeding object increases in space when accelerated?
If you measure the mass of a movjng object as it moves through your laboratory, you'll always find that it has more mass than it had when it was just sitting on the shelf. The faster it's moving through your laboratory, the greater its mass will be. It doesn't matter whether it's accelerating or not.

What is a new speicies moving in called?
Mass Extinction
What is a measurement of distance in space called?

The amount of space matter occupies is called what?
mass
What is the amount of mass in a given space called?
Density
What scientist believed that planets move in a straight line along the curved surface of space?
Albert Einstein. He argued that what we think of as "gravity" could be the influence of mass moving through some as-yet-undetected 4th-dimensional curving of space.
The amount of space occupied by a body is called its mass or volume?
The amount of space occupied by a body is called its volume. Mass is the amount of metter in a body whereas volume is the amount of space a body occupies.
