What can you conclude about the general relationship between crater size and the sizemass and velocity of the object that produced the crater?
The more massive the object is, or the faster the object is moving, the bigger the crater will be.
How does the density of an object effect its gravitational pull on other objects example when a star's density increases its gravitational pull increases on other objects?
Mass, not density, and the closeness of objects, affects an object's gravitational pull. Density is not dependent on an object's size, but mass is. The more massive an object, and/or the closer an object is to another, the greater its gravitational pull.
How do you measure the mass of the black hole at the galactic center?
If you observe an object in an elliptical orbit around something, AND you know the mass of the orbiting object AND the size of the orbit, you can calculate the mass of the object at the center (more precisely, at one of the foci) of the orbit. We observe several stars orbiting the super-massive black hole at our galactic center. We can calculate their mass based on the light they give off, and we can measure their orbits over time. From this, we can calculate the mass of that black hole.
What does 100x magnification mean?
It means that the object you are observing is shown at 100 times its actual size.
What determines if a property is size- dependent?
So a size dependent property is going to be a property that duh.. depends on the size. Like mass, volume etc. A size independent property is going to be a property that is intrinsic to the object, regardless of size. For example: the color of something. if you have a purple flower, the color of the flower does not change if you have two or three or four of them. density of an object is also another one.
What tells us how massive something is for its size?
matter
Length is a property that tells what an object?
size
Name 3 things that echolocation tells a bat about an object?
the object's distance, size and locatioin

The more massive the object is, or the faster the object is moving, the bigger the crater will be.
Does size determine an objects mass?
By size I think you mean the volume. And no, you also need the density of the object. Which tells you how much a given size weighs.
What size rock is more susceptible to weathering?
A small rock will have the most massive effects due to its size...compared to something like a boulder, anyway.
What is the difference between size and scale?
Size is how big something is, scale is how much is in that object. Think of the universe for example.
What does the slope of a speed vs time graph indicate about an object's motion?
The slope of the speed/time graph is the magnitude (size) of the object's acceleration.
If the forces on an object is balanced what does it tell you about the size and direction of the force?
It tells us that the sizes of forces are equal and directions of forces are opposite.
How can black holes be massive but not big?
When something in science is said to be massive, it does not refer to the object's physical dimensions; it refers to the object's mass, which is the amount of matter it contains. A black hole is an object, usually a dead star, that has completely collapsed under the force of its own gravity to a single point. The "size" of a black hole is often measure by the radius of the event horizon. For a black hole 3 times the mass of the sun, which is about the lower limit, the event horizon would be about 11 miles in diameter.
What size are phoebe bridgers feet?
Massive. Absolutely Massive
What does large mean absolute deviation means?
Large means something or an object that is big in size.
