  • Such an object makes a larger dent in the fabric of space-time than an object with little mass. (It has a greater gravitational attraction than less massive objects)
  • A greater force is required to accelerate such an object than a less massive object

What a small mass with a lot of force applied?

The object accelerates.


If an object has a large mass on Earth what else does it have a lot of?

Answer: weight and inertia


How much does 176 kilogram equal in pounds?

The answer is 79.832 kg (approx.). Kilogram is the SI unit of mass and pound is an imperial unit of mass. To convert from pound to kg, multiply the pound unit by 0.453592."kg" is a unit of mass, not weight.-- An object that weighs 176 lbs on Earth has 79.83 kg of mass.-- An object that weighs 176 pounds on the Moon has 482.94 kg of mass.-- An object that weighs 176 pounds on Jupiter has 30.13 kg of mass.This is why it's so important for us all to finally learn the difference betweenmass and weight, now, at this point in history. Now that the 'space age' isin full bloom, it has become more and more common to hear and read aboutfamiliar objects located in other places, not on Earth.As long as everything in our total experience was always taking place on Earth,we could get away with the sloppy habit of saying that 1 kilogram of mass hasthe 'weight' of one kilogram ... because until now, that weight always feltthe same.But from now on, whenever that kilogram of mass leaves Earth and goesto be used in some other place, we could be stuck with the inconvenientand confusing fact that 1 kilogram might 'weigh' a lot more or a lot less than1 kilogram.It seems to me that it would be a lot less confusing to learn the simple differencebetween mass and weight.


A moving object that has a lot of inertia will?

What is inertia dependent upon?

Inertia is dependent on the mass of the object being considered, and sometimes by its momentum - depending on how we are using the term. Recall that inertia is the resistance of a body to a change in motion. (A body at rest tends to remain at rest unless acted on by an outside force. And, a body in motion tends to remain in motion unless acted on by an outside force.) We think of something massive as resistive to being moved. That's inertia. But it's not moving. If that same massive body is rolling, it will have a lot of momentum, and it will take a great deal of force to slow and stop it. In the first case, the object has no velocity, and will have no momentum. In the second case, it's moving, and it will have momentum.

What is always true of an object that has a lot of mass?

An object with a lot of mass will have a greater gravitational force acting on it, causing it to be more difficult to move or accelerate compared to objects with less mass. Additionally, objects with more mass will typically have more inertia, meaning they will resist changes in motion more strongly.


Is it true the bigger the object is the harder the object will fall?

not necessarily, due to wind resistance and the surface area of said object the object will not always fall as fast. ex. a human sky diving. if they are in a pencil dive, they will fall a lot faster then if they are in a spread eagle position. but due to its mass it will sure as hell hurt a lot. so yes and no


Do object that have large masses always have large weights?

well if it has little mass it has little weight and if you have a lot of mass the possibility of it would be that it weights a lot

How can a object have a lot of mass but a little volume?

An object can have a lot of mass but little volume if the particles making up the object are densely packed together. For example, a material like lead is very dense, so even a small volume of lead can have a lot of mass. This can result in objects that are heavy but take up little space.


The mass of an object at the surface of the Earth compared to the mass of the same object at a distance of two Earth radii from the surface of the Earth is?

What does it mean when an object has a lot of densety?

When an object has a lot of density, it means that a large amount of mass is packed into a small volume. This makes the object heavy for its size because the mass is concentrated in a tight space. Materials like lead or gold are examples of dense objects.


Is the amount of matter in an object called mass?

Yes, mass is the amount of matter in an object.


Are all things that have a lot of mass very dense?

Not necessarily. Mass and density are related properties, but they are not always correlated. An object can have a lot of mass but be very spread out, leading to a lower overall density. Density is a measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume.
