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.


What is the measure of a body's resistance to acceleration?

Mass measures the body's resistance to acceleration.


Why does a body shows loss in weight when immersed in a liquid?

Very interesting question. As we immerse a body of mass M and having volume V is immersed in a liquid then a space of volume V is required for the immersing body. So that space of V is created by the equal volume of liquid vacating that space. Now this liquid should have gone above the initial level of liquid. This is known as expelled or displaced liquid. Its weight though acting down it wants to push up the body out of the liquid region. This push up is known as buoyant force. Hence if B is the buoyant force upward then this would be subtracted from the weight of the immersed body. Hence loss of weight is felt.


Why heat gained and heat loss?

Since heat flows from high temperature region to low temperature region so when a hotter body comes in contect with colder body then hotter body loses heat to colder body until both have same temperature.


What situations may show that pressure acts in all directions?

When your body explodes outward from your center of gravity in space. There is no pressure in space. Your body's inner pressure is about the same as the earth's, preventing the earth's pressure from crushing you. In space, your body's pressure, as it has nothing pressing against it, expands outward in all directions until you are ripped apart.

How do you define distance?

How is mass and volume different?

Volume is the amount of water, space ,or air an object takes up and is labeled cm3. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object ,and is labeled g (or grams). mass is not the same as the measure of weight because mass always stays the same and weight is the measurement of the force of the gravity of an object which can change because gravity changes.


Do you use matter to measure the force of gravity?

You can use matter or light to measure the force of gravity, because gravity distorts the shape of space around the gravitational body thus distorting the path that matter or light travels through that space.
