Increasing the mass of an object means adding more material to it. For instance, you could increase the mass of a pillow by adding more feathers to the stuffing.
On Earth, where the gravitational constant is 9.8 m/s2, adding mass is roughly equivalent to adding weight. However, in physics, weight is a force and mass is a measure of quantity.

Increasing the speed of an object does not affect that object's what?
mass
Does increasing mass increase acceleration?
not if the object isn't move, no
What are two ways of increasing the momentum of an object?
1. Add mass to the object. 2. Add energy to the object.
What would happen if you increase the mass of an object?
Since the force of gravity is directly proportional to mass, then increasing the mass of an object increases the force of gravity it produces.Since accceleration = force/mass, then increasing the mass of an object means it will have a smaller acceleration for the same force (or alternatively that you need more force to produce the same acceleration).
What would cause an object to have smaller acceleration?
increasing the mass of the object, keeping the net force constant
Increasing the speed of an object does not affect that object's what?
mass
How does increasing mass affect the motion of object?
increasing mass affects the force of objects in motion because it will slow the object down than its neighbor
How will increasing the size of an object affect its thermal energy?
This is a poorly stated question. What do you mean by size? Volume or mass? By your question, if all other factors are constant, increasing the size, (whatever you mean by that) will have no effect. If you mean that you have a mass at a certain temperature and you double the mass at that temperature, then the total energy doubles.
How does increasing the speed of an object change its momentums?
Increasing the speed of an object will increase its momentum as well (momentum=mass*velocity).
How is the density affected by increasing the mass?
if you increase the mass of an object density is affected because now the object is MORE dense.
Does increasing mass increase acceleration?
not if the object isn't move, no
What are ways to increase friction?
1)increasing the roughness of the surface 2)increasing the mass of the object
How does increasing the volume of an object affect its density if the mass of an object remains the same?
i dont understand

What does it mean to know the mass of an object?
it means that you found the mass of an object.
