Question
- the __ of an object does not change, but its __ can, based on its location.
a. mass, volume
b. weight, mass
c. mass, weight
d. weight, volume
To solve this, we recall the definitions of mass and weight. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, which is constant regardless of location. Weight is the force of gravity on an object, so it changes with location (e.g., different gravitational fields on Earth vs. Moon). Volume is related to the space an object occupies and isn't directly related to location - based change in the context of this question. So mass doesn't change, but weight can change with location.
