using spring, standard mass and accelerometer ... acceleration of standard mass is calibrated to measure mass.

The mass of a planet is measured based on the effects of its gravity on nearby objects.
through mass
I guess it would would be the same
Weight = Mass * force of gravity. You can be weightless in space because there is no gravity. Since there is still mass though, everything would have momentum (momentum = mass * velocity).
Yes, weight depends on the gravity of the planet. The weight of an object is different on a planet with a different gravity. An object has zero weight in outer space. No! An object does not have zero weight in outer space. Why? Because gravity exists in outer space.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object and is measured in grams.
True. A body of mass M will have zero weight in outer space.
The temperature of outer space is measured in Kelvin. Water boils at 373 K and frezzes at 273 K.
If an item has mass, then its mass is constant regardless of where it goes ... whether it's on Earth, in the air, on the moon, or in space on its way from one place to another.
anything that has mass and takes up space.
If the space is in outer space there can be no gas against which a terminal velocity can occur
I guess it would would be the same
it is called meteorite
hehehe we just finished this in science. the amount of space taken up by and object is it's mass mass is measured in grams mass is different than wieght, for example in space, you are weightless, but you mass stays the same. :)
Absolutely not! Any body has the same mass anywhere. The weight of a body is the effect of gravity on the mass.
Mass is defined as the quantity of matter in an object. This is measured in grams as the standard unit. Weight is diffrernt than mass! Volume is defined as the amount of space an object takes up. This is measured in liters.
Mass is measured on anything it can be measured on so it cant be
the amount of matter in a given space; mass per unit volume
It depends what is in that gallon bucket. If its full of platinum it'll be a mite heavier then if it was full of pure vacuum. Its a confused question. Weight is how hard earth's gravity sucks on something. In outer space there is no weight. Mass is how much of stuff is in something - its measured by how much force it takes to accelerate it. In outer space mass remains an important factor in doing anything. And gallons are antique imperial units for volume. The weight or mass of a gallon of something can vary widely depending on the density of the material. From helium to uranium the density of stuff varies a lot.
