According to Galileo, the mass of an object has no effect on the time of descent here on earth under a constant gravitational value, he discovered that objects will reach the ground at the same even though they may have different masses. this is due to the same rate of acceleration of objects experienced here on earth (approximately 9.8m/s/s). Merely the minute difference in the time observed between two falling objects of different masses can be attributed to the heavier object overcoming the friction force of air resistance better than the lighter.

An impulse is the product of the on an object and the time during which it is applied?
What happens when an impulse acts on an object? Impulse is defined as force acting on an object for a specific time. Impulse = Force * time If you push on a object for a specific time, the object's velocity will change. Equation = F* t = mass * ∆ v This equation is derived from F = m* a, a = ∆v ÷ t
Which of the following can be used to measure an object's motion?
Nothing on that list has any effect on an object's motion.
What effect does time have on the speed of a moving object?
Time in no way has an effect on speed.
What effect does time have on a speed of a moving object?
Time in no way has an effect on speed.
How mass affect the time?
Mass doesn't effect time, energy effects mass (proportional) and velocity effects time (not proportional).
What would the hypothesis be for Does the mass of an object affect the falling time you have not tested it?
Before you test it, you could state the hypothesis in two different ways You could say: "The mass of a falling object has no effect on the time it takes to fall some distance." Or you could say: "The time a falling object takes to fall some distance depends on its mass." You could use the same tests to investigate EITHER hypothesis. --------------------------- The mass of a falling object has no effect on the time it takes to fall some distance assuming zero air resistance.

What is the effect on periodic time of doubling the mass of the vibrating systems?
there is no effect of mass on time period because mass and time period are inversely proportional
What objects are not affected by force?
There is no such object. Any object on which a force is applied will accelerate (i.e., its velocity will change over time). If the object has a very large mass, the effect will be hardly noticeable for any given force.

Nothing on that list has any effect on an object's motion.
What effect does time have on the speed of a moving object?
Time in no way has an effect on speed.

Time in no way has an effect on speed.
Does the mass effect the time taken for objects rolling down a slope?
Galileo dropped two different sized objects from the tower of Pisa and they both hit the ground at the same time. The object was to prove that the size/weight (i.e. mass) of the object would not affect the rate of fall.
How mass affect the time?
Mass doesn't effect time, energy effects mass (proportional) and velocity effects time (not proportional).
What is the amount of time an object takes to move around another object?
It depends on what object it is. You have to figure out it mass and such.
Does the mass effect the speed of am objects?
no, it does not because speed is only a measure of how fast something is travelling and bears no relation to the size, shaped or weight of an object (speed = distance/time). However, mass does affect momentum (momentum = mass x velocity) so an object with a high mass will take more force to stop. Mass also affects the amount of kinetic energy (kinetic relating to motion) an object has. (K.E = 1/2 x mass x velocity2)
When does a force change the velocity of an object?
If the object is in free-space, and any force applied over a period of time will change the velocity of an object. Force = mass * acceleration. Acceleration = velocity / time. Therefore, Force = mass * velocity/time.
