What does changing the shape of an object have no effect on the density of that object?

Nothing whatsoever.


How does changing the shape of an object affect its mass?

It doesn't.


Why does changing shape of an object dose not change the density?

Changing the shape CAN change the density. If you change it into a smaller shape, then you increase the density. However the mass will not change.


Why does changing the shape of an object have no effect on the desity of that object?

Because desity is defined as (mass) divided by (volume), and neither of those quantities depends on the object's shape.


Why does changing the shap of an object have no affect on the density of that object?

Density is mass divided by volume: Changing the shape (say by bending it) changes neither.


How does energy create motion and change?

This can involve changing the shape of matter, or changing the speed or direction of an object.


What is it called when an object's distance from another object is changing?

Displacement.


What is the shape of a displacement-time graph for an object that is constantly speeding up?

If the Object is falling at a constant velocity the shape of the graph would be linear. If the object is falling at a changing velocity (Accelerating) the shape of the graph would be exponential- "J' Shape.


Does changing the shape and amount of an object affect its density?

no, because it is the same throughout, except if the temperature and pressure is changing


Does energy cause motion and create change?

This can involve changing the shape of matter, or changing the speed or direction of an object.


Why doesn't changing an object's shape or size affect it's density?

No, size doesn't affect an object's shape because it's the same unit and material.


Why does changing the shape of the object have no effect on the density of that object?

It does not matter because the density only matters on the mass and volume.
