No; in common language, mass means something closer to weight. There is a relationship to size in the sense that a larger piece of something has more mass than a smaller piece of the same thing. But while weight is a measurement that depends on the local force of gravity, mass is a characteristic inherent in matter regardless of the strength of gravity. It relates to the acceleration acquired when a force is applied.

Is mass size dependent?

No, mass is not size-dependent. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while size refers to the dimensions or physical extent of an object. Two objects of different sizes can have the same mass if they contain the same amount of matter.

If two objects are the same size will they have the same mass?

Not necessarily. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while size refers to the dimensions of the object. Two objects of the same size may have different densities, which would result in different masses.


Do all-stars have the same size why or why not?

Nope. It depends on how much matter the star was immersed in during its formation. More matter equals more size and vice versa.


Does the mass of a planet equal the size?

No, the mass of a planet and its size are not the same. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while size refers to the physical dimensions of the object. A planet's mass is determined by the total amount of material it contains, while its size is a measure of its physical dimensions.
