Mass and energy always have locations in both time and space; the amount of space that they take up depends upon their density, but they do take up some. Since energy is often associated with matter (heat, kinetic energy etc.) it would be the matter that takes up the space. The energy would be in the same space as the matter. But energy can also exist independently of matter (such as a photon of light travelling in space) and in that case, the energy takes up space.

Is energy anything that has the mass and takes up space?

No. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space (has volume). Energy has no mass and does not take up space, therefore it is not matter.


What is something that has mass and take up space?

One object that takes up space and has mass is matter.Anything that takes up space and has mass is called matter in physics. This is anything that has physical substance.


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.


Is it matter or energy if something cannot be seen but has mass and takes up space?

If something cannot be seen but has mass and takes up space, it is matter. Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space, which includes both visible and invisible particles. Energy, on the other hand, refers to the ability to do work or cause a change and does not have mass or take up space.


Energy is anything that has mass and takes up space?

Actually, energy is the ability to do work or cause change. It is not a physical object like matter, but rather a property that can be transferred or transformed. Energy comes in different forms, such as kinetic, potential, thermal, and electromagnetic energy.


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 has no mass and doesn't take up space?

A mathematical point in space has no dimensions therefore takes up no space. Certain particles have no rest mass but have the energy equivalent because of the velocity they possess. A singularity is a theoretical no volume point but has a huge mass.


Is it possible for something to take up space and not have a mass?

no taking up space is having mass.


Does matter have mass and take up space?

Yes, all matter has a mass and takes up space.


Does everything take up space?

Anything with mass takes up space.


Do mass take up space?

Yes, mass takes up space because mass is a measure of matter in an object, and matter occupies physical space. The more mass an object has, the more space it takes up.


How much space does tidal energy take up?

Energy takes up no space, at all.
