Yes. A good example would be styrofoam and steel. The same volume of each of these substances would make for vastly different weights.

Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the objects weight is different?
That is because Earth has more gravity. Weight = mass x gravity.
Do all objects weigh the same amount when placed in a vaccum regardless of their mass?
No. In a vacuum, the weight of an object will be the product their mass, times the gravity. In other words, objects with different masses will have different weights.
Which is heavier akilogram of gold or akilogram of sawdust?
The kilogram is a measure of weight so they are the same, the volume would be different.
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different area?
Yes. A cube that is 2x2x2 has the same volume as a rectangular prism that is 1x2x4, which is 8. The surface area of the cube is 24 while the surface area of the rectangular prism is 28.
Can different shapes have the same Volume?
Yes many different shapes can have the same volume
Why is the of an object the same on the moon as it is on earth but the objects weight is different?
The reason is because the mass is like the volume and the weight is like how heavy an object is.

How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different masses?
Their masses are different. (Mass = density * volume)
Is the magnitude of buoyancy experienced by the objects constant for a particular liquid?
It depends on the objects' volume. Different objects that have the same volume, if submerged, experience the same buoyancy. The buoyancy is equal to the weight of the displaced liquit; in other words, volume (of submerged object, or of the submerged part) x density of the liquid x gravity.
If two objects have the same volume and one of these objects sinks in water can you tell if the other object will sink as well?
Volume is the amount of area an object takes up. If their volumes are equal, their mass (weight) can be different or the same, so you can't always be sure.
Who found (discovered) that objects of different mass and weight fall at the same rate?
Who found (discovered) that objects of different mass and weight fall at the same rate
Why do 2 objects of different masses dropped from the same height hit the ground at the same time?
Most likely because they're the same weight. Objects can have completely different masses and have the same weight.
Why do objects have different weights?
Some Objects May Weight The Same But Sometimes They Don't But What Im Trying To Say Is That Some Specific Objects Don't Weight The Same
If two objects have the same mass can you assume they have the same volume Explain give example?
Two objects has got same mass means the mass of both the objects is same. It does not comment any thing about the volume of the objects. If the density of the two objects is same, then only their volume will be same. If both the objects are not made up of the same material, they have most likely to have different volume. Rarely it may be same.
Can two objects with the same volume have different masses if so why?
Yes they can, if they have different densities.
Why can two objects with the same mass have different densities?
Volume. Density depends on mass and volume. Density = mass/volume. Things that have the exact same mass can have different densities if the volume associated with either are different.
Can items with the same mass have different volume?
Yes, this is because different objects have different densities. If something has a low density then you need a lot more of it in order for it to have significant weight, so it will therefore have a higher volume. Inversely, if you have an object with a high density then very little will be necessary for it to have significant weight, so since there is less of it, it will have a lower volume.
