How can an objects weight change if its mass does not?
Weight is affected by gravity, while mass does not. On Earth mass and weight are the same, yet on the moon your weight could be 1/6 of its original, while your mass would stay the same no matter where you go.
How would your weight and mass change if you go to the moon?
your mass would stay the same (mass never changes), but your weight would be about one sixth (1/6) of what it is one earth
What would be the effect on the mass and the weight of an object if the object were taken to a planet with twice the gravity of earth?
the mass would stay the same no matter where you are and the weight is the force of gravity on an object, so depending on the gravity your weight would change
When mass nd volune increases does destity stay the same?
If they both change in the same ratio, yes. Otherwise, no.
What are the two masses and the one distance that determines your weight?
Your mass, the mass of the Earth, and the distance between you and the earth's center determine the gravitational force exerted on you by the Earth (i.e. your weight).
Why will a person's mass never change whether they are on earth or on the moon?
Because mass is not the same as weight. Weight is mass times gravity so your weight will change if you are on the earth or moon but your mass will stay the same.
How is the mass of a pencil different from its weight?
The mass will always stay the same but the gravitational pull towards the centre of the earth (weight) will change.
Will your mass change from planet to planet?
No. Your mass will stay the same. Your weight, however, will change in direct proportion to each planet's gravity.
How can an objects weight change if its mass does not?
Weight is affected by gravity, while mass does not. On Earth mass and weight are the same, yet on the moon your weight could be 1/6 of its original, while your mass would stay the same no matter where you go.
When the object's weight changes with gravity does the mass stays the same?
Of course the objects mass will not change. Since there is no gravity in space(moon), only the objects weight will change.No matter where the object the mass will stay the same!
How would your weight and mass change if you go to the moon?
your mass would stay the same (mass never changes), but your weight would be about one sixth (1/6) of what it is one earth
Does your weight stay the same no matter where you go like the moon?
no, your weight changes. your mass stays the same
Do solids and liquids change in size when taking the shape of its container?
No liquids and solids do not change size the volume, mass,density, and weight stay the same they just change shape.
What would be the effect on the mass and the weight of an object if the object taken to a planet with twice the gravity on earth?
the mass would stay the same no matter where you are and the weight is the force of gravity on an object, so depending on the gravity your weight would change
What would be the effect on the mass of the weight of an object if the object were taken to a planet with twice the gravity of earth?
the mass would stay the same no matter where you are and the weight is the force of gravity on an object, so depending on the gravity your weight would change
What would be the effect on the mass and the weight of an object if the object were taken to a planet with twice the gravity of earth?

What properties stay the same during physical and chemical change?
mass mass
