Is an objects density the measure of the amount of matter in the object compared to known masses?

What are two factors that determine an object's gravitational force on other objects?
The masses of both objects, and the distance.
Is the force of gravity related to the amount of mass on an object?
Yes. The forces of gravity between two objects depend on the product of their masses, so it depends on the masses of both objects.
What happens to gravity when one object is larger than the other?
The force of gravity between two objects depends on the product of the two masses and the distance between them. The force has nothing to do with how similar or different the objects are.
What is the effect of the mass of an object at the time of descent.?
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.
What can you tell about two objects that have the same volume but different masses?
the two objects in question have different densities. The denser object has more mass.

Are objects masses?
Of course objects have mass because Mass is any object that has weight.
What are the other contribution of Sir Isaac Newton?
relate the force of gavity on the different object to their masses relate the force of gavity on the different object to their masses relate the force of gavity on the different object to their masses
Do all objects weigh the same amount when placed in a vaccum regardless of their mass?
No. In a vacuum, the weight of an object will be the product their mass, times the gravity. In other words, objects with different masses will have different weights.

The masses of both objects, and the distance.
When placed in water object a floats and object b sinks the objects are the same sizeand shape describe the masses of the objects?
Mass b > mass a
Does gravity exists between all objects with the masses but strength of gravity between two objects depends on the mass of the object?
Yes. All objects that have mass are affected by gravity and the gravitational force varies with the masses of the objects.
Is the force of gravity related to the amount of mass on an object?
Yes. The forces of gravity between two objects depend on the product of their masses, so it depends on the masses of both objects.
If you have 2 objects with the same volume do they have the same mass?
No, this is actually very unlikely. An object made of balsa wood and an object made of steel, even if they have identical volumes will have very different masses!
An objects what is a measure of the amount of matter on the object compared to known masses?
mass
