no, mass is how much of something is in an object. If you go to the moon your mass will be the same. Weight and mass are different.

But mass can change if an object is altered, IA person's mass will not be the same after he has had a limb amputated. Still the same person, not the same mass.

no its chicken

<- whoever wrote that is completely wrong.

Mass increases as you the traveling vessel approach the speed of light.

If the velocity where to be attained, theoretically mass would equate to infinity in the

observers perspective.

His description of change in mass is subjective. Technically the arm and lost blood hold the same mass value as did the individual as a whole before the amputation. unless of course the amputation was done via nuclear explosion/fusion :D.

On a rudimentary level, mass is dependant only on perspective and relation to surrounding objects. If we were all and always were sumo wrestlers, would we be said wrestler or normal people? perspective.

Mass NEVER changes unless you add matter, or take matter away.

If you don't take matter away or add any, the mass will never change.

Wait what? Doesn't your mass change as you gain or loose weight?
