Why should you always measure position at the bottom hook of the spring rather than at the centre of mass of the attached load?

Because - the bottom of the hook will always be at the same position for objects of the same mass. Different sized objects may have the same mass - BUT - could have different centres of gravity.


What instrument will you use to find the mass of objects?

All you need is a scale. you should use a scale that measures in grams.


Does an objects weight change gravity and does its mass stay the same?

An object's weight is the force exerted on it by gravity and can change depending on the strength of the gravitational field it is in; for example, an object weighs less on the Moon than on Earth. However, the object's mass, which is a measure of the amount of matter it contains, remains constant regardless of its location or the gravitational field. Thus, while weight can vary with gravity, mass stays the same.


Does water weight decrease after freezing?

No. As long as you don't take any of it away, the same quantity of mass is still there, and the same quantity of mass always has the same weight, regardless of what physical state it happens to be in. No, the weight of the water remains unchanged. Mass is conserved. It does, however, become less dense (takes up a little bit more volume).


Do all rocks weigh the same if they have a different mass but the same weight?

Do all rocks weigh the same if they have a different mass but the same weight? Let's look at the question without one bit of it..... "Do all rocks weigh the same if they have ......... .... ... the same weight?" If things are the same weight, then they weigh the same.

Is mass the same where you go?

an objects mass is always the same but the weight can change because on different planets, the gravitational pull is different. so, yes


Does the mass of an object affect its weight after its shape has been altered?

The mass always affects the weight. But the same mass always hasthe same weight, regardless of its shape.-- Notice that there is no 'shape' term in the formula for weight:Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) -- A 50kg woman and a 50kg sack of potatoes have the same weight,even though one of the objects has a better shape.


Do objects of the same size always have the same mass?

not always it depends

Is it true two objects with the same mass will always have the same momentum?

No, two objects with the same mass will not always have the same momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity that depends on both mass and velocity. If the objects are moving at different speeds, they will have different momenta even if they have the same mass.


Do two objects that have the same mass and velocity always have the same momentum?

Yes, if two objects have the same mass and velocity, they will always have the same momentum. Momentum is calculated as the product of an object's mass and velocity, so if these values are the same for both objects, then their momentum will also be the same.


What changes with location mass or weight?

weight.. Mass always stays the same


When the object's weight changes with gravity does the mass stays the same?

Of course the objects mass will not change. Since there is no gravity in space(moon), only the objects weight will change.No matter where the object the mass will stay the same!


Do two object with the same weight has the same mass?

If they are subjected to equal gravitational accelerations, YES !W1 = ( m1 ) ( g1 ) ------> m1 = W1 / g1W2 = ( m2 ) ( g2 ) -------> m2 = W2 / g2Since W1 = W2 ; m1 and m2 must be equal if g1 = g2.ANSWER : Yes if the gravitational accelerations are equal


Does mass mean the same as gravity?

No, mass and gravity are not the same. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while gravity is a force that pulls objects with mass towards each other. Gravity is influenced by the mass of objects.


Does the weight of an object affect the motion'?

Strictly speaking weight is the force of gravity acting on an object. It should not be confused with the objects mass. Weight ⇔ force When something is on the moon it weights less but its mass is the same. Something special about gravity is that in the absence of air friction, all objects accelerate down at the same rate irrespective of their weight because as a objects weight increases, so does its mass. Take the equation.. F = ma or (weight of an object) = (its mass) x (its acceleration) When an objects weight doubles so does it mass, so the acceleration does not change.


Why do scientists rely on mass rather than weight?

Because an objects mass is the same anywhere in the universe.
