Mass is a scalar quantity that represents the amount of matter in an object. It is not a force itself, but it does affect the gravitational force experienced by an object.

What does the force cause a mass to do?

Force causes a mass to accelerate in the direction of the force according to Newton's second law of motion, F = ma. It can also change the velocity of the mass or deform its shape depending on the type of force applied.


What Type of force is involved in turning off a water tap?

How does mass effects force?

Mass effect force because mass is all about force


Which term is the measuerment for the force of gravity weightmass or inertia?

The force of gravity on an object is its weight. Masses come in two types, which are thought to be equal. Inertial mass is one type, and gravitational mass is the other type, and, repeating, they are thought to be the same.


What are the effects of force on a mass?

The effects of force on a mass is acceleration of the mass.


What is the mass and force of gravity?

Gravity is a force but has no mass.


Does mass and velocity equal force?

No, mass and velocity do not equal force. Force is the product of mass and acceleration, not velocity. The equation for force is F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.


What type of force is pulling downwards on the pan and weights?

The force pulling downwards on the pan and weights is the force of gravity. This force is acting on all objects with mass towards the center of the Earth.


What creates force?

Mass and acceleration creates force (Mass*Acceleration=Force).


How does force impact mass and weight?

-- Force has no effect on mass.-- "Weight" is force.


How is the relationship to mass and force expressed mathematically?

accelleration=force divided by mass force=mass times aceleration


Is force dependent on mass?

Yes, force is directly proportional to mass. Remember that Force = Mass X Acceleration.
