Does object occupy space?

Does object occupy space?

Mass gives an object the property of weight and inertia (resistance to change in the motion of an object). There are four states of matter, solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. If something is in a solid state of matter, it has a definite shape and volume. The volume of an object is the amount of space it occupies.

What is an object occupying a space called?

(i) An object that occupies space is called a solid.

Does mass displace space?

So no, matter does not displace space. It actually bends and warps space. And this bending and warping is what is known as Gravity. In what exact manner matter bends space is described by Einstein’s field equations in General Relativity.

Is there anything that does not occupy space?

Vacuum has no Mass but occupies space.

Does class occupy space?

Simply a class without an object requires no space allocated to it. If a class has multiple objects they can have different unique memory locations.

Is the space occupied by flat surface?

In geometry, the area can be defined as the space occupied by a flat shape or the surface of an object.

Is the 3-dimensional space that an object is or occupies?

Volume
Volume is the amount of space enclosed by an object or shape, how much 3-dimensional space (length, height, and width) it occupies.

What is the space occupied by gas called?

volume
The volume of a gas is simply the space in which the molecules of the gas are free to move.

Can you bend time?

Science does support some amount of time-bending, though. For example, physicist Albert Einstein’s theory of special relativity proposes that time is an illusion that moves relative to an observer. An observer traveling near the speed of light will experience time, with all its aftereffects (boredom, aging, etc.)

Is air does not occupy space?

Matter is anything that has mass and volume. For example, air has mass and takes up space.

Is Shadow occupy space?

A shadow moves with the object (that blocks the path of light) or the source of light. It does not displace anything in its path and hence does not occupy space. Thus, a shadow can not be classified as matter.

Why does matter not occupy empty space?

Matter contain or occupies its own volume. That volume always will remain with that matter, wherever it will moves. Hence it will not occupies empty space’s volume. Else it displaces the empty space to other region. Therefore space is not fixed like a container and matter’s existence is not depending on space.

Is there a space in between matter and space?

$\\begingroup$ “There is no “in between” in your case. If matter occupies no space, the whole space is “in between”, i.e it is empty.”. Space is ‘not’ empty. Matter, according to my case, zero dimensionally intersects with space, while retaining its own existence in some other dimension.

Can a point lie in space?

$\\begingroup$ In your first comment, you said “If matter does not occupy space, it does not “lie” in it.”. In co-ordinate geometry, we learn that a point is a zero dimensional entity without volume. Also points ‘lie’ in three dimensional or two dimensional Cartesian planes, even though they occupy no volume.
