No. Mass is what things are made of. Area is a way to how much length and width is covered by one of an objects sides.

How do you Calculate mass with surface AREA?

You cannot These are different concepts. you need a volume and density to calculate mass, surface area provides neither (a cube and a sphere with the same surface area have different volumes and, had they been made of the same material, would have different masses).


Can cm squared be converted into meters?

No. In general, you can only convert units that measure the same thing: thus, you can convert length to length, area to area, mass to mass, etc.


Why do planets that are the same size have different surface area?

If you are referring to two planets of the same MASS, then the difference in surface area would probably be due to their relative densities. If one planet is composed of denser matter than the other, then the same mass would take up a smaller volume, and thus the surface area would be smaller.


How do you change hectares to meters?

It doesn't make sense to convert that. In general, you can only convert between units that measure the same thing - length to length, area to area, mass to mass, etc.


How does the amount of weight put on the body of the paper helicopter change how fast it drops?

it doesnt. it may affect how fast it lifts off, but not how fast it drops. now, if you had said weight put inside the body of a helecopter, then it would have made a difference because of the relationship between surface area and mass. if you have alot of surface area and alittle mass, then you fall slowly, if you have alittle surface area and alot of mass, then you fall quickly. in the same way, if you have alot of surface area and alot of mass, then you would fall at the same speed as somethign with a little mass and a little surface area.


How do you find the mass of an object when the pressure and area is given?

Mass = Pressure*Area


How do you find pressure when given mass and area?

Pressure=mass/unit area


Why will the dense area of rock increase the local strength of gravity?

Because it would mean that there is more mass in the same little area, compared to the adjacent areas.
