Best Answer

a triple beam balance can be used to measure mass.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

In a laboratory analytical balances are used. The type of balance depends on the mass to be measured.

The amount of matter an object has is mass. You need to measure mass so you are able to compare the mass of objects, and using a balance is the most common method used. You use a triple-beam or double-pan balance to measure gravitational mass.

A scale that compare two objects is the, balance scale.


What can you tell about two objects that have the same volume but different masses?

the two objects in question have different densities. The denser object has more mass.


Which change will always result in an increase in the gravitational force between two objects?

Reducing the distance between them. In theory, also increasing the mass; but you can't really change the mass of an object. However, you can compare the forces if you replace an object by a different object, which has a different mass.


Can two objects have the same temperature but different amounts of mass?

Certainly


Why is your weight on earth different from out mass on the moon?

You can't compare WEIGHT with MASS - those two are used to measure quite different things. It doesn't make sense to say that they are the same, or that they are different. You can only compare mass with mass, or weight with weight.


In a presentation about measuring Mass one of your classmates states Two objects of the same size will always have the same mass. and Is this statement correct Why or why not?

Different objects contain different amounts of matter, even if they are the same size. Therefore, two objects of the same size can have different masses.


What factors determine the force of gravity between two objects?

the mass of the objects and the distance of the objects


Can you use a graduated cylinder to find which of two objects has a greater mass?

No, you would not use a graduated cylinder to compare the mass of two objects, that would be silly. Graduated cylinders are only useful to measure volume, not mass. Mass is measured with a scale. Chemists usually use a triple beam balance.


How do you compare two or more items?

When comparing two items or two objects, then look for the similarities (what is the same) and differences (what is different) between them.


Will two objects that have the same mass that are dropped from two different heights meet at the same speed?

No because 'g' is irrespective of the object's mass.


When two objects of the same mass drop from different heights do they land at the same time?

No


What dose a metaphor mean?

A metaphor means to compare two different objects directly. E.g. She is a star.
