No because now part of the apple is missing so the mass would be less.
The total mass of the apple is not changed, but part of the mass is now
in the biter's mouth.

How do you find the mass of an apple?
Mass of an AppleWhat a tricky question! You can easily measure the WEIGHT of an apple... or the downward force the MASS of the apple excerts in it's gravitational field on earth. Weight is a very good approximation of MASS... but to determine EXACT mass is something you'd not be able to do in the "backyard."Weight and mass are considered equivilent on the earth's surface. That is something that weighs 1 kilogram on earth has one kilogram of mass. It will only weigh 160 grams on the moon but will still have 1 kilogram of mass. To estimate the mass of an apple without a scale is to see how much water it displaces.
What unit do you use to measure the mass of an apple?
grams
What unit of measurement would you use to get the mass of an apple?
A gram.
1.An apple has a mass of 297 grams. How many kilograms is this?
0.297 Kg
The mass of an apple measured by a beam balance is the same on earth and on the moon?
yes because it is
Does an apple have more mass then a paper towel?
Yes an apple takes up more space than a paper towel so there for an apple has a larger mass.
What is a person who takes mass called?
A Catholic.
What objects has a force of gravity- read all of the answers a a person b an apple c neither a person nor an apple d both a person and an apple?
d both a person and an apple. Both a person and an apple experience the force of gravity because they have mass and are attracted to each other due to the gravitational pull between them.
What would be the mass of a person on the moon?
A person's mass is the same on the moon as it is on Earth because mass does not change based on location. However, their weight would be about 1/6th of what it is on Earth due to the moon's weaker gravitational pull.
How does the mass of an apple compare to the mass of the same apple sliced into pieces?
The total mass of the apple remains the same whether it is whole or sliced into pieces. Slicing the apple into pieces does not change the total amount of matter in the apple.
Are rotten apples matter?
Yes. 'Matter' is anything that takes up space and has mass. A rotten apple has mass and takes up space, therefore it is matter. If you meant something different with your question, you should revise your use of English grammar.
Why does an apple fall to Earth?
The apple has mass. The Earth has mass. The apple falls down, and the Earth "falls" up. The Earth's motion is not measurable. The apple's motion is.
The mass of an apple in pounds?
"Pound" is a unit of force. It's not a unit of mass. The mass of an apple depends on the individual apple. If it weighs, say, 8 ounces on Earth, then its mass is 0.5 poundmass, or 0.015625 slug.
What are two things that has mass?
Two things that have mass are an apple and a rock.
Why does an Apple fall toward the earth instead of the earth moving towards the Apple?
Because the mass f the Earth is way greater then the apple's mass. Though apple attracts earth it is so negligible that it is equal to 0
Would an apple have mass of about 250 kilograms or 250 grams?
The apple would most likely have a mass of 250 grams
When you drop the apple identifies all the forces actions on it as it falls and the corresponding reaction forces?
the apple and the earth accelerate toward each other. force on apple (and earth) f = ((G * earth mass * apple mass) / distance ^2 ) . earth mass = 5.974 * 10^24 kg apple mass = 0.5 kg distance (between centre of gravities) = 6 371 000 metres . f = 4.909938 newtons . acceleration of apple = f / mass apple = 9.8199 (m/s)/s acceleration of earth = f / mass earth = 8.219 * 10^-25 (m/s)/s
