If you divide the mass of an object and the volume what do you get?

Mass divided by volume gives the density of an object.


What is Mass volume?

An object's mass divided by its volume gives you a measure of the object's density.


What part of an object is a measure of the force of gravity between earth and the object?

The object has mass, and the force of gravity gives that object weight, which is mass in a gravimetric field.


Why is the sun the object that gives earth gravity?

it doesn't the Earth's mass is what gives Earth gravity not the Sun


Force can also be referred to as the weight of an object?

Yes, the acceleration of gravity times the mass of the object gives a force that is the weight.


Why are the objects easier to push or pull than others?

An object with a greater mass needs more force. Mass is what gives an object resistance to acceleration. Newton's Third Law: force = mass x acceleration, or acceleration = force / mass.


Is mass a measure of a quantity of matter?

You might call it that; though the term "quantity of matter" is also used for the number of moles. Mass is what gives objects inertia - making it difficult to speed a moving object up, or to slow it down. Mass also gives an object weight in a gravitational field (weight = mass x gravity).


What property of matter gives rise to the force of gravity?

Mass of an object influences the force of gravity on it.


What you measure as mass?

The "mass" is what is sometimes called (quite informally) the "amount of matter". To be a bit more precise, the mass is what gives an object inertia (the more mass an object has, the harder it is to change its velocity - read about "Newton's Second Law" for more details), as well as gravitational attraction (for example, on Earth, an object's weight is proportional to its mass).


Momentum is the product of mass and what of an object?

mass multiplied by velocity gives momentum.


How would you calculate the density of an irregular shaped object such as a cylinder or screw?

First you get the object mass by weighing it.Then you get its volume by immersing it in a scaled water container and see the increase in water volume which gives the object volume.Then you divide the mass by the volume to get the object density.


A 3000 N force gives an object an acceleration of 15ms2. The mass of the object is?

Just use Newton's Second Law. That is, divide the force by the acceleration.
