An object of the same mass has three different weights at different times. Which statement is possible?

The object gains matter and then loses it.
The object started on Earth, was transported to space, and was deposited on the moon.
The object started at the bottom of a hill, then moved to the top of the hill, and then moved back down to the bottom of the hill.
The object changes shape, which changes its weight

Respuesta :

Answer: option B

The object started on earth, was transported to space, and was deposited on the moon.

Explanation:

While the mass will stay the same the weight will change in space and on the moon

Answer:

option 2

Explanation:

Mass is the amount of matter contained by a body. The mass is intrinsic property of the object and does not change with the change in its position in space. Weight is the amount of force acting on the body due to gravity. Thus, the weight varies with the change in the position of the body in the space.

If a body has certain weight on Earth, it would reduce as it would be transported to space (it would decrease) and then increase again (but less than that on the Earth) when transported on the moon. The moon has less gravity than the Earth and hence, the the body would weigh less on moon than on the Earth.
