When is energy converted to mass?
One instance, when a particle is accelerated with sufficient kinetic energy, that energy can change into mass in the form of subatomic particles.
How does gravity affect motion of an object?
The object is accelerated towards the centre of mass of system formed by the object moving and the other object.
The measure of the amount of matter in an object?
Mass!
What is the definiton of mass?
property of a physical body which determines the strength of its mutual gravitational attraction to other bodies, its resistance to being accelerated by a force, and in the theory of relativity gives the mass-energy content of a system
Does the mass of a speeding object increases in space when accelerated?
If you measure the mass of a movjng object as it moves through your laboratory, you'll always find that it has more mass than it had when it was just sitting on the shelf. The faster it's moving through your laboratory, the greater its mass will be. It doesn't matter whether it's accelerating or not.
Any acceleration implies the presence of what?
A mass to be accelerated and a force to provide the acceleration.
What force is required to accelerated a body with a mass of 18 kilograms at a rate of 36ms2?
2n
Why is force needed?
Force happens when an object of mass is accelerated, and the equation to calculate force is : force=mass/acceleration

Since light does not have a quantity of mass then if an object with mass were accelerated to the speed of light would the momentum of the object be enough to escape the pull of a black hole?
if an object with mass was to be accelerated to the speed of light it would disintegrated and then become trapped in the black whole. however the only way a mass could possibly accelerate to such a speed would have to be caused by the pule of a black whole or something of even more mass.
What effect did the mass have?
The"mass effect" in the video game series Mass Effectrefers to the technology that this game's universe is built around. Basically the most important discovery in the future was a technology, the specifics of which are unexplained, that reduces the mass of an object to almost zero allowing it to easily be accelerated. This means that ships can be accelerated past light speed, and that bullets can be little pieces of sand instead of large pellets.www.omfgnetwork.com
Can an object with a little mass be accelerated with balanced forces?
yes! because mass means the quantity of matter as determined from its weight or newton's second row of motion
What happen to carts movement when the force was increased while the mass remained the same?
The carts will be accelerated, by the force, a=F/m.
Which gram has the greatest mass?
A gram is a gram is a gram whether it be feather or lead (unless of course it can be accelerated to near light-speed).
What idea of Aristotle's was later proved incorrect?
One idea of Aristotle's that was later proved incorrect is his belief that heavier objects fall faster than lighter objects. This was disproven by Galileo's experiments with falling objects.
How does gravity affect motion of an object?
The object is accelerated towards the centre of mass of system formed by the object moving and the other object.
How is mass and weight alike?
Weight is mass, when accelerated by a gravitational pull. In space you are weightless, but still have mass. The same object will weigh less at the top of a mountain, because there is slightly less gravity. It will still be the same object and therefore have the same unchanging mass.
