Can an object have zero weight?

Yes, weight depends on the gravity of the planet. The weight of an object is different on a planet with a different gravity. An object has zero weight in outer space. No! An object does not have zero weight in outer space. Why? Because gravity exists in outer space.


What is the value of acceleration due to gravity in space?

The magnitude of acceleration due to gravity depends on the mass of the object toward which you're attracted by gravity, and on your distance from it. There are trillions of different possibilities in space.


The amount of matter that makes up an object is called?

Mass!! Weight is the measure of how strongly gravity pulls an object, mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object, and volume is the amount of space an object takes up.


Amount of force exerted on an object due to gravity?

it depends upon the mass of the object and how much acceleration it has. Also if it is in space then it experiences a force from other bodies which is equal to GMm/rxr here G is the universal gravitational constant and M and m are mass of the of the two objects and r is radius of the object


Is it better to use volume or mass?

It depends what you are calculating. Volume is the amount of space on object occupies; mass is the amount of matter in an object.


Amount of space taken up by an object?

The amount of space taken up or occupied by an object is its volume.


Differentiate mass from weight?

Mass will always remain constant. Mass depends on how much stuff there is. Also, we measure Mass in kilograms (Kg) but we measure weight in Newtons, (N). Weight, always depends on where you are. The weight of an object will be different on Earth, compared to Mars, or just space. The formula for the weight of an object is: F=ma where 'F' is the weight, 'm' is the mass, and 'a' is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet in question. Ex.) My mass is 75.0 Kg, what is my weight? (the acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.81) F=ma F=75.0 kg * 9.81 N/Kg F=736 N


What is the amount of space is an object takes up?

The amount of space that an object takes up is known as its volume.Volume is how much space takes up in an object


What 2 ways are weight and mass different?

Mass is the amount of matter an object has. Weight is actually a measure of the force of gravity on an object. An object normally has a constant mass, but weight varies with gravity. An object in space will have no weight, but still have the same mass.


What is the amount of space and object?

The amount of space occupied by an object is called its VOLUME.


How come an asteroid have gravity but the space shuttle does not?

Technically all objects have gravity, however, an object's gravity depends on its mass. In order for its gravity to be noticeable an object must have a very large mass. The space shuttle weighs a couple thousand tons, which is not enough for there to be noticeable gravity. Many asteroids have masses of millions to trillions of tons.


What is the amount of space that matter in an object?

The amount of space that matter in an object occupies is its volume.
