What unit of measure would you use to measure a small box of cookies?
Mass= Kg (Kilograms) Weight= N (Newtons) or if your measuring volume, then it would be: cm3 (Centimeters Cubed)
What is the mass of a lunch box?

Will a box that it's is mass is grams float in olive oil?
To float in olive oil the box needs to displace a volume of olive oil that has the same mass as the box - the less dense the oil (for example by being warmer) the more volume the box will need to displace to equal its mass. If it cannot displace a volume of olive oil that equals its mass, the box will sink. Or to put it another way, the box will float in olive oil as long as its density is less than that of the oil.
How do you figure out how many pounds are in a bushel?
Refer to a matter density table or fill a bushel container & then weigh it.===Weight versus volumeA recurring problem -- an incessant, nagging, chronic one -- is the confusion people have with weight and volume. They are NOT the same. Weight is an indirect measure of mass, whereas volume is an direct measure of space. Think of it this way: a pound of feathers and a pound of rocks have the same weight (which means they have the same mass, since weight is a function of mass, and they therefore represent the same amount of matter -- stuff!) But they do not occupy the same volume. Clearly, a pound of feathers will take up way more space than a pound of rocks.Or think of it THIS way: If you have a shoe box filled with feathers and an identical shoe box filled with rocks, which will weigh more? Clearly, the box of rocks. Both the feathers and the rocks occupy the same volume -- a shoe box -- but the box of rocks has greater mass and, hence, greater weight.Which brings us -- tada! -- to a bushel. A bushel is a unit of volume, just like a shoe box is. If you have a bushel of feathers, it will weigh less than a bushel of rocks -- or a bushel of corn, or a bushel of buckwheat, or a bushel of apples. In other words, you are going to have to find a table that shows how much a bushel of whatever it is you have weighs, because a bushel of each substance will weigh something different.
Does the power needed to raise a box onto a platform depend on how fast it is raised?
Technically, once you know the weight of the box and the height of the platform, you can state the amount of"work" or "energy" needed to raise the box onto the platform. But there's no such thing as the power "needed"to do the job.Power is just the rate of doing work. You can calculate the amount of work needed, but it doesn't matter whetherthe work is done slowly or fast ... with low or high power.
What is the mass of 14 books in a box?
The mass of 14 books in a box would depend on the individual weight of each book and the weight of the box itself. Without specific weights to provide an accurate calculation, we would need more information to determine the total mass.
A crane does 5000J of work to lift a box a vertical distance of 16.0 m Calculate the mass of the box?
Force on the box = (weight) = (mass) x (gravity)Work = (force) x (distance) = (mass x gravity) x (distance)Mass = (work) / (gravity x distance)= (5000) / (9.8 x 16) = 31.888 kg (rounded)

What is the weight of a box of books?
A typical moving box is approximately 13x13x18inches. Good quality paper has a density of 50lb/ft^3. The resulting weight is 88lb.
What is the Mass of a cereal box in grams?

Why is it easier to slide a cardboard box when it is empty compared to when it is full of heavy books?
It is easier to slide an empty cardboard box because it has less mass and therefore less inertia, making it lighter and easier to move. When the box is filled with heavy books, it has more mass and inertia, making it more difficult to slide due to the increased resistance to motion.
How much work is done in carrying an 8.2 kg box up a 6 M flight of stairs angled at 45 degrees above the horizon?
You need to multiply the weight by the VERTICAL distance.You get the weight by multiplying mass times gravity.
Is mass a accurate measure of weight?
While mass can be a measure of weight in day to day use (ie The box weighed 15 kg) technically it is actually a measure of how much gravitational force an object exerts. This is how the term mass is used in physics.
