If the ball is solid, and remains solid, then in order to increase its volume more material (mass) will have to be added to it. However, if the ball is hollow, then it may grow larger by thinning the walls of the ball and increasing its radius. In this case, no air is allowed to fill the increasing inner volume since that would lead to an increase in mass. This means that there will be a partial vacuum inside the ball, and depending on the strength of the clay, and the outside pressure, the walls may collapse. It would also be possible to increase the size (volume) of a solid ball of clay by reducing the density of the clay. The most common way to do this without magic is to heat it up.
No, the mass of an object remains constant regardless of changes in gravity. Mass is an intrinsic property of an object and does not change with gravitational influence. The weight of an object, however, can change with variations in gravity, as weight depends on the gravitational force acting on the object.
Mass doesn't change. Mass the is substance of an object, moving it around won't affect how much mass it has, only adding or subtracting from the object would affect the quantity of mass. The weight would change because gravity is inversely proportional to distance but not the mass.
The mass of an object doesn't change when you move it to different locations. Your mass remains the same whether you are on Earth or on the Sun. What changes is your weight, which is affected by the gravitational pull of the celestial body you are on.
Mass is the amount of substance in an object. It is independent of gravitational field. Weight on the other hand, is the measure of the gravitaional pull of an object, which does vary with the strength of a gravitational field.
No, a bowling ball (or any other object) has exactly the same inertial mass no matter where it is (its actual inertia will, of course, depend upon its velocity as well as its inertial mass). Weight changes on the moon, but inertia doesn't.
changes the shape but not the mass
To increase the kinetic energy of the small ball of clay when throwing at a person, you can either increase the velocity at which you throw the ball or increase the mass of the clay ball. This can be achieved by exerting more force when throwing the ball or using a larger amount of clay to increase its mass, resulting in higher kinetic energy upon impact.

if the shape changes the mass changes
Ball clay is a variety of clay which commonly consists of 20-80 percent kaolinite, 10-25 percent mica, and 6-65 percent quartz. This clay used to be cut into balls of a mass of around 30 pounds.
Imagine a 500 pound glob of clay. If I took out .0000001 pounds of clay out of it, that would be an insignificant change in mass. Basically, if you take something out of something else and you hardly noticed it, that is an insignificant change.
Mass and Weight The gravitational force Earth exerts on an object is the weight of the object. Because weight is a force, it is measured in newtons. Weight is not the same as mass. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains, and is measured in kilograms. Even if the mass of an object doesn't change, its weight will change if its distance from Earth changes
Total mass never changes.
more inertia due to its greater mass, making it resist changes in its velocity or direction more than the lighter 50g ball.
No. Mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object, and that does not change when the matter changes states. The matter will either contract or expand, depending on the current state and the state to be reached, but that does not change how much matter is in the object.
Yes.Because of the differneces in mass in each ball.
Weight changes but, ordinarily, mass doesn't.
