What does the word mass mean in science term?
The word mass in science means the density of an object.
What does submerged volume mean?
That is the amount of fluid displaced by the object beneath the surface of the fluid.
What is the accepted value of density for lead?
Density= Mass/VolumeAlso, you could determine the Volume by filling a beaker up with any amount of water and record the amount. Drop the piece(s) of lead in the water and record the new amount in the beaker. Subtract the new reading by the old reading and this is your volume. To find mass just weigh the piece(s) of lead in grams and this is you mass, then plug your measurements into the equation above.It might sound complicated, but it is really easy, if you have the scale and beaker.
If Two Objects have the same volume does this mean that both objects must have the same mass Explain?
Just because two ojects occupy the same volume does not mean that they have the same mass. For example: If I have two boxes of the same dimension (volume) and fill one with hammers and the second with feathers. are they the same mass? Of course not. another way of looking at the problem at hand would be to take a tone of hammers and a tone of feathers. which one occupies the most space? the feathers of course. so to have the same mass as the hammers, the feathers need to occupy more volume.
Is the greater an objects mass the stronger the gravitational force on it?
Yes, force is the gravitational acceleration multiplied by the mass of that object. Should the gravitational acceleration increase (as on a different planet) or should the object's mass increase, the gravitational force on the object will as well.
What is amount of matter in an object is called?
"Amount" is one of those rubber words that can mean different things to different people. The 'amount' of matter in an object could be the object's mass, or it could be the object's volume.
What would have happened if objects had no density?
Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.
The amount of an object is called?
Mass is the amount of matter, if that is what you mean.
What does volume in mathematics mean?
The volume of an object is the amount of 3-dimensional space that it occupies.
Explain what is meant by the term 'mass'?
Mass does not mean density. Density is mass per unit of volume. If, the volume of an object is the unit volume then the measure of its mass and density will be the same.
What does volume mean in math?
The answer to the volume term is the amount of square area in perimeter
Does density vary with the amount of something?
Density = mass / volume the mass and the volume describe the amount... i mean that when u say 5 kg of sodium(mass) then the amount of sodium is 5 kg or when u say 2 liters of H2O(volume) then the amount of H2O is 2 L
What does the word mass mean in math?
It is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
What does weight and mass mean?
mass is the amount of stuff in something. density is how tight,compact,and squished together something is. volume is the amount of space something takes up.the volume of a 3-D CUBE(sphere ETC.) is lengthxwidthxhight. mass======== density x volume. weight=mass x GRAVITY.GRAVITY is in there because:::::::::go to moon,less gravity on moon,same mass(you)=less weight.Weight is the force due to gravity of some object. Weight is measured in newtons, but many people confuse that with kilograms. Mass is the amount of some object, measured in kilograms, that is independent of gravity.
What does the mass mean in maths?
Mass is actually a physical concept and is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.
What does the word mass mean in science term?
The word mass in science means the density of an object.
Do size and mass mean the same?
Yes but NO
