Why are the words mass and weight used to describe the same thing?

Technically they are not. Mass is the amount of matter in an object while weight is how much force an object experiences from gravity due to its mass. An object's weight in a gravitational field is directly proportional to its mass: if you double the mass you double the weight. Since the strength of gravity on Earth varies very little an object of a given mass will have pretty much the same weight any where you take it.


How much mass does a celestial object have to have to exert gravitational force?

There is no minimum mass at which point an object (celestial or otherwise) begins to have a gravitational force. Any object with mass has an associated gravitational force. The magnitude of that force is proportional to to the mass of the object - lots of mass results in lots of gravitational force; little masses result in only little gravitational force.


Would a star have more mass or weight?

Mass and weight are the same thing. *Mass and weight are not the same thing. Mass is the measurement of matter within the object and weight is the force applied to the object from gravity. So, to answer your question a star would have much more mass than weight because there is very little gravity affecting the Sun.


How does mass affect distance when the force applied is the same?

well think of it like having a small object with little mass then a large object with a lot of mass. Hitting the big object takes more force to make it move and the little object does not take nearly as much force to make it move. i hope this helped!


When an object acquires a positive charge by the transfer of electrons what happens to its mass?

It stays the same, the object must have lost electrons and while they do have mass it is so small that is generally ignored. An electron has a mass roughly 1/2000th of a proton or neutron, and those aren't heavy to begin with!The most acceptable answer should be that the mass stays the same.


Do object that have large masses always have large weights?

well if it has little mass it has little weight and if you have a lot of mass the possibility of it would be that it weights a lot


Are weight and mass similar?

Yes, very alike, but mass is the amount of matter in an object, and weight is the force of gravity pulling down on an object.


What happens to an object that has large mass and little volume when place in watar?

It will get wet.


How can a object have a lot of mass but a little volume?

Volume x density = Mass A material with high density has a great mass for a small volume.


Why is there a difference in an object's weight on Earth and on the Moon?

Because the gravitational force between any two objects depends on the product of both their masses. The object's weight on earth depends on the object's mass and the earth's mass, whereas its weight on the moon depends on the object's mass and the moon's mass. Since the moon's mass is very different from the earth's mass, the object's weight is also different there.
