Does density refer on how hard an object is?
No, density refers to the amount of matter that can fit into a specific volume. It is found by dividing the mass of the substance by its volume.
Where are the states of matter found?
the states of matter are found in just about any existing substance or object.
What does biomass measure?
the amount of matter in a body is found by drying it to remove all the water then weighing it. This amount of matter is called the biomass. Ecologists find measuring biomass useful as it tells them how much matter is locked up in each species of a food chain.
What is he movement of one object around another object is called?
I just found it , its called revolution
The amount of matter in an object can be measured in?
Matter isn't a term that is clearly defined, however I have found it most commonly used distinctively different than mass by using the assumption that an atom is a quantized form of matter. Ergo, the number of atoms is the amount of matter in an object. The unit for a number of atoms is Moles. A mole is Avagadro's Number of atoms, which is independent of the mass of the matter. Thus, knowing the mass of a discrete number of moles of a particular substance, and knowing the mass of a given sample, you can calculate how much "matter" is actually present in the sample. Also, don't confuse any of this with volume. This was all independent of volume.
What is the matter phase found in stars called?
Plasma
How is mass and weight are related?
Mass is essentially a measure of the amount of matter an object contains, but more specifically: It is a measure of an object's resistance to accelerate.Weight is a measure of the amount of force acting on an object, though it is typically associated with gravitational force.The formula, F = M * A (Force = Mass * Acceleration) relates all three quantities.An object contains a certain amount of matter, and the more matter it has, the more difficult it is to accelerate the object. This mass is typically measured in grams or kilograms, and it is found by finding the weight of on an object and dividing it by the acceleration (Usually that is gravitational acceleration).Note that Mass and Weight are NOT the same thing. Weight, in our perspective here on earth, is the acceleration of gravity (9.81 meters per second) times the amount of mass we contain. Therefore, a person with 10 kilograms of mass weighs 98.1 Newtons on earth. If that same person were to be on the moon, their mass would remain the same, as no matter has left them; however, their weight would be smaller because the acceleration of gravity is only 1.62 meters per second on the moon.As an object's mass increases, it's weight increases as well. However, as an object's weight increases, it does not necessarily mean that its mass is increasing as well, for the magnitude of gravity's acceleration may just be getting larger, but the object may not be gaining any more matter.In a nutshell: Weight is the measure of the force on an object depending on the mass of said object and the gravity which acts upon it. Mass is the resistance of an object to accelerate, depending on the amount of matter it contains.
What is the small graphic found on a desktop that represents an object called?
mouse
Will the sun become a giant diamond?
No. When the sun dies it will form an object called a white dwarf, made mostly of carbon and oxygen. A white dwarf is made of electron degenerate matter, a state of matter far denser than anything found on Earth.
What is density's property?
Density is a property relating to the mass and volume of a given substance.
A very high energy PHASE of matter not found normally on Earth is called?
A very high energy PHASE of matter not found normally on Earth is called plasma. Plasma is the most abundant form of matter in the Universe because of stars.
What is cloudy object found in the night sky among the stars called?
The Milky Way.
