Mass is the quantity of inertia possessed by an object or the proportion between force and acceleration referred to in Newton's Second law of Motion.

How can the desity of an object be determined?

Not sure about desity. If you meant density, it is mass/volume.


What is meant by the mass of an object?

The mass of an object is a measure of the amount of matter in it. It quantifies the object's inertia, or resistance to changes in motion, and is typically measured in units such as kilograms or grams. The mass of an object remains constant regardless of its location in the universe.


What is meant by dry mass?

dry mass means the mass of an object/organism once it has been dried and the water has been removed.


What is meant by an object has mass 6000 gm?

An object with a mass of 6000 grams means that it has a weight equivalent to 6 kilograms. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, and in this case, the object weighs 6000 grams when measured under the force of gravity.


What is the mass of an object that weighs 115 pounds?

A pound is a measure of mass, not weight so an object cannot weigh 115 pounds. Assuming that you meant the object weighed 115 poundals, the answer is 1.62 kilograms.


What did Einstein discover that led him to propose the mass-energy equivalence?

Nothing. He simply worked out the formulae of special relativity in relation to the kinetic energy of a moving object. When he did so, he concluded that, when a moving object radiated electromagnetic energy of the amount L, then the mass of that object decreased by L/c^2 . He later concluded this meant that the mass of an object is equivalent to its energy content.


Explain what is meant by the term 'mass'?

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. It is a fundamental property of an object and is typically measured in kilograms (kg). The mass of an object remains constant regardless of its location in the universe.


What does the gravity of an object depend on?

The gravity of an object depends on its mass and the distance between it and another object. The larger the mass of an object and the closer it is to another object, the stronger the gravitational force between them.


What is the relationship of gravity and mass?

Gravity measures the pull upon an object. The more mass an object has, the more weight it will have. Mass is a SET number. It will never change unless your substance/ object changes. weight changes depending on your altitude and what planet you are on. (Not meant as a joke. It is why astronauts have to jump on the moon, because it has such a low gravitational pull (compared to the Earth).


What You weigh the mass of an object you then cut the object in two halfs and weigh the total mass of the two halves is what to the mass of the original object?

it is equal to the mass of the original object


How do you calculate the mass of an object?

the mass of an object measures the amount of matter in a object.


What is density of an object with a mass of 35 grams and a volume of 7 cm?

Square centimeter is a unit of area, not of volume. Assuming you meant cubic centimeters, just divide the mass by the volume.
