Maybe. The question is ill-defined as written.

If I take a metal object of known mass, and let it rust in such a way that none of the rust crumbles and falls off the object, the rusty object will indeed have a slightly greater mass than the original object did.

What object would have more inertia than a 5kg object?

An object with a higher mass would have more inertia than a 5kg object. Inertia is directly related to an object's mass - the greater the mass, the greater the inertia. So, any object that weighs more than 5kg would have more inertia.


Gravity will have a greater effect on an object with?

a larger mass. The force of gravity is directly proportional to the mass of an object. Therefore, the greater the mass, the greater the gravitational force acting on the object.


Is it true that gravity greater on an object that has more mass?

Yes, gravity is directly proportional to an object's mass. The greater the mass of an object, the greater the force of gravity it experiences.


Inertia varies depending on?

the mass of an object. The greater the mass of an object, the greater its inertia. Additionally, inertia also depends on the velocity of the object - the faster an object is moving, the greater its inertia.


What affects an objects inertia?

The mass of the object and the velocity of the object.


What will happen if an object has a density greater than water?

If inserted into the water as a solid "blob" then it will sink - unless it dissolves first. But, if because of the shape, the mass of water displaced by whole object is greater than the mass of the object, it will float - just as ships made of metal do.


The greater the mass of an object the?

Greater the gravitational force it exerts on another object.


If Object A and Object B both have the same volume but object B has a greater mass which object is more dense?

object B has greater density recall the formula for density is = mass/volume since volume is the same, a greater mass will give a greater density


Which one of the the following objects has the greatest inertia?

An object with greater mass will generally have greater inertia. Therefore, the object with the greatest mass among the options provided would have the greatest inertia.


Which has greater mass a two inch feather or a one inch eraser?

The greater the mass of an object, the greater its weight. The greater the weight of an object, the more difficult it would be to lift it. So ask yourself this question: which object is more difficult to lift, an eraser or a car?


Does mass affect inertia?

inertia is the laziness of an object, or an objects resistance to change its state of motion, or how easy it is to start or stop an object. Mass is the measure of an object's inertia. Therefore with more mass, an object has more inertia.


What type of reaction occurres when iron has rusted and how does the mass of the object after rusting compare with its original mass?

The mass would be greater
