How do you predict the weight or volume or surface area of an object from each other?

In space, judging mass and size has been refined to an art thanks to Newton. Not only does his math draw out the hows and whys of elliptical orbits, his optical studies of the visible and invisible electromagnetic spectrum allow us to read the composition of the stars and planets from here. The orbits of the known planets was calculated and an additional planet was inferred when theses numbers did not add up right. Prediction is complex and rife with errors. Math and science can bring predictions in line with reality.

What is the relationship of volume of water to its mass?
volume in litres is equal to its weight in kgs 1000ltrs is equal to 1000kgs
This force acts upwards on objects suspended in water or air what is it?
It is called buoyant force. It is calculated by determining the volume of water displaced by the object, which is the volume of the object under water.The weight of this quantity of water is the buoyant force. It can also be calculated by knowing the depth of the object in the water, the pressure at that depth, and the area of the bottom of the object. Buoyant Force = Pressure * depth It can also be calculated by knowing the weight of the object. If an object is floating the water is supporting the object's weight. So the buoyant force = weight of object
What is the relationship between volume and weight?
The relation between weight and volume -: When the weight of a substance increases, its volume also increases. Two substances may have the same weight but different volumes. (Example: If you have one stack of cotton and iron each of the same weight, they will have different volumes. Volume of cotton > Volume of iron in this case.) Density = Weight/Volume.
How is mass and volume determined density?
If the object has a regular shape, like a cube or sphere, its volume can be calculated readily from solid geometry. Weight divided by volume gives density. For an irregular shape, one trick for finding volume is to submerge it in a calibrated container of water. The amount of increase in the volume of the water is the volume of the object. * * * * * Mosttly correct but density = mass/volume not weight/volume. Mass is not the same as weight.
What is the weight of a 10kg mass at sea level?
That would depend on the volume (density) of the 10kg object.
What is The density of an object is?
It is the ratio of an object's weight to its volume. Alternatively it can be said, it is the weight of the object per unit of volume.
Does it depend on the weight of the object itself or on its volume itself in a bouyant force of an object?
The buoyant force on an object depends only on the weight of the fluid displaced: Fb = Vd*ρf*g Vd may not be the volume of the object; for example: if the object is floating on the liquid surface. Also, there may be other forces acting on the object, such as its weight (Mo*g)
What is the weight of a 6Kg object on the surface of Mars?
what is the weight of a 6kg object on the surface of Mars
Does the buoyant force on an object depend on the weight or of the volume of the object?
volume
A measure of the force of gravity on an object?
Weight The force of gravity on an object is its weight. If we know the mass of the object, and the acceleration due to gravity we can calculate the weight of an object as follows weight= mass x acceleration due to gravity W=mg Units : newtons (because weight is a force) Example: Given an object on the surface of the earth Mass of the object=1 kg acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the earth is approximately 9.8m/s2 -->W=mg=1x9.8=9.8 newtons
Does the buoyant force on a submerged object depend on the volume of the object ir the weight of the object?
On its volume.
If an object floats the volume of displaced water is equal to the volume of what?
Look at the LAST WORD of the question, they switch it sometimes if it is: Underwater than it is TRUE, If it's Surface of the water than it is FALSE ~
What detirmines the weight of an object?
The weight of an object is determined by volume, density, and gravity.
What is the gravitational weight difference between the moon and earth?
The weight of an object on the moon's surface is 16.3% of the same object's weight on the earth's surface.
Is it true that If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the portion of the object that's underwater?
the weight of the displaced water is equal to the weight of the object
What is the difference between surface and density?
You cannot use surface area to calculate density. Density is a calculation comparing TOTAL area and weight of an object. In short you must use the total volume of the object when calculating the density.
What is volume weight and density?
volume is how much space is in an object (an object with more volume would be bigger) weight is how heavy an object feels due to gravity (an object with more weight would be harder to lift) density is how much matter is in an amount of space (an object with more density would weigh as much as an object with less density but in a smaller space/volume)
