Mass is the attribute "inertia" of a physical object or of what ever is contained in a specified region of space. So mass is(1-1 ) proportional to inertia. Nay, the word "Mass" was synonym for "inertia", in the E=mc^2 formula's documents.

Note: You can't view mass as "Weight of matter" because this implies a gravitational force, but there is no need to have gravity in our system to have inertia.

What are the different behaviors of matter?

Matter has mass, proportional to the quantity of matter in it, and associated with mass is Gravity.


How is inertia related to matter?

matter is not related to inertia. Mass is.


What can you measure matter and mass with?

For "matter", it would depend what aspect of matter you want to measure.Mass is often measured via its weight; under normal Earth gravity, the weight is proportional to the mass.


What occupies space and has weight?

weight is proportional to gravity mass is proportional to its self, you can weigh 0 lb in space but 300 on earth, but your mass stays the same no matter what. (please improve im going off what i just learned)


Is the amount of acceleration directly proportional to the fore and to the mass?

No, an object's acceleration is inversely proportional to an objects mass.


Are force and mass directly proportional or inversely proportional?

Force is directly proportional to mass provided the acceleration is constant.


How strong is dark matter?

Dark matter's strength is proportional to it's mass. This means that more dark matter in one spot is stronger then a little bit of dark matter in that same spot.


Is weight and mass proportional but not equal?

true or false. weight and mass are proportional but not equal


Is mass inversely proportional to momentum?

Mass is proportional to momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. When mass increases, momentum increases.


When acceleration is held constant and objects of different mass are observed are mass and force directly proportional or inversely proportional?

directly proportional because force=(mass)(acceleration) (f=ma)


How mass affect the time?

Mass doesn't effect time, energy effects mass (proportional) and velocity effects time (not proportional).


How does mass effect momentum?

Linear momentum is proportional to mass and velocity;p = mvThus, increase in mass will increase the linear momentumAngular momentum is similarly related:L = p.rL = mv.r
