Matter is all around you. It is simply and object so for an example- a pen. How big the pen is, is how much space it takes up. Not very much space is being taken up. The bigger and object the more matter it has and the more space it takes up.
Most of matter itself remains empty space. The nucleus of an atom is orbited by a cloud of electrons. Only a tiny fraction of the total volume is consumed by these elementary particles. But assuming the matter forming a rock or a star is solid (and some big stars get compacted into lumps of neutronium--the most compact form of degenerate matter this side of a black hole), matter itself occupies only a tiny fraction of the total volume of space. Even considering that much of interstellar space may be not entirely void, but includes cosmic rays and hydrogen atoms of densities of 1000 atoms per cubic meter, Most of the volume of interstellar and intergalactic space remains void of anything.
What else can I help you with?
Does matter take up lease space when energy is added to it?
Matter does not take up less space when energy is added to it. This is because energy is not a physical unity and therefore it does not interfere with the occupancy of space by matter.
Why is sound not matter?
sound is not matter because it dose not take up space and it dose not have volume
What two things characterize all matter?
All matter 1) has mass and 2) occupies space (has volume).
Everything that has mass and takes up space?
Theres likely a few quantum mechanic theories that are screaming at me but essentially yes, for it to have mass it must be made of matter for it to be made of matter it must take up some space even if its a tiny amount
What word describes anything that has mass and takes up space?
Anything that takes up space and has mass is called matter.
What constitutes a matter?
Anything that has mass and takes up space is matter. Energy is not matter because it does not have mass nor does it take up space. Pretty much everything else is matter.
What a matters?
Anything that has mass and takes up space is matter. Energy is not matter because it does not have mass nor does it take up space. Pretty much everything else is matter.
What does matter take up?
Matter takes up space. The amount of space matter occupies is referred to as its volume.
What matter take up space?
All forms of matter take up space. This is due to the arrangement of particles within the matter, which determine its volume and shape. From solids to liquids to gases, all matter has a physical presence that occupies space.
Does matter have mass and take up space?
Yes, all matter has a mass and takes up space.
What is taken up by matter?
Matter occupies space, and the space it takes up is called the volume of matter.
Does matter take up lease space when energy is added to it?
Matter does not take up less space when energy is added to it. This is because energy is not a physical unity and therefore it does not interfere with the occupancy of space by matter.
What matter that does not occupy space?
There isn't a type of matter that doesn't occupy space, because matter is defined as having mass and taking up space. If it didn't take up space, it wouldn't be matter.
Does matter have weight and take up space?
Yes, matter has weight because it has mass, which is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Matter also takes up space because it has volume, which is the amount of physical space an object occupies.
Is it true or false that Matter doesnt have to take up space as long as it as mass?
False. Matter, by definition, occupies space and has mass. All forms of matter have volume, which means they take up physical space.
What is the measure of how much matter can take up a certain volume or space?
The measure of how much matter can take up a certain volume or space is called density. Density is calculated by dividing an object's mass by its volume. Objects with higher density have more mass packed into a smaller volume.
If it takes up space and has mass it is?
Matter is anything that contains mass and takes up space. We are made up of matter, as is pretty much everything else.
