No, it is not possible for an object's mass to be zero.

Does gravity affect an object without mass?

Well, the formula for the gravitational force between any two objects says that the force is proportional to the product of their masses, so we suppose that if one of the objects had no mass, the product would be zero, and the force would also have to be zero. Tell you what: You find us an object without mass, and we can check it out together.


Which is more common a mass of zero or a weight of zero?

Depend on what exactly do you mean by 'common'. On one hand there are countless photon everywhere which has zero mass. But if you mean everyday objects, then zero weight of cause (free fall, space etc), as I don't think zero mass is even attainable at this scale.


What is a example of a momentum of zero?

An object at rest. Actually that's the only possible example for a single object. For two objects, you can have objects moving in opposite directions; for example, one may have a momentum of +100 units, and the other, a momentum of -100 units.


IS velocity possible in zero gravity?

Velocity is relative to the observer and or objects that are in the area , if your sitting in true zero gravity from your point of view you will be standing still but in-reality your velocity will based on your original thrust. Some one watching you (at a zero velocity) from another location might see you zoom by at the original velocity. So the new question is if that other person has zero velocity and is in zero gravity what time will it be when they look at their watch ? Hmmm


Is An object's weight is always the same as its mass?

It is possible for objects weight's to change, while its mass remains constant.


What are the smallest objects?

That depends what you include under the term "objects". In general, those would be subatomic particles. Many of them are (in a sense) considered to have no volume. Some of them, such as photons and gravitons, have zero mass (rest mass; they will have some mass due to their energy).


Describe the momentum of objects at rest?

Measured in the frame of reference in which the object is at rest; zero since momentum is mass times velocity. Note that momentum is zero but inertia is not.


Is it possible that a body may have non zero mass but zero weight?

Yes, it is possible for a body to have non-zero mass but zero weight when in free-fall or in a microgravity environment where there is no gravitational force acting on the body. Weight is the force due to gravity acting on an object, and so in the absence of gravity, the body would have zero weight but still have mass.


What would have happened if objects had no density?

Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.Density is simply mass divided by volume, so that would mean either that the object has zero mass, or that it has a huge extension.


How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different masses?

Their masses are different. (Mass = density * volume)


When an objects net force is zero is it accerlerating?

When an objects net force is zero, its acceleration is zero. No force , no acceleration.


Why does earth not have zero gravity?

Because it has great mass, subatomic particles, called gravitons, cause it to attract all objects near it
