The weight of an object can change even when the mass stays the same. Which statement correctly identifies a relationship between mass and weight?

• The weight of an object depends on its mass and its volume.

• Gravity affects the weight of an object but not its mass.

• The mass of an object depends on its weight and size.

• Magnetic fields can affect mass but not weight.

A student drops a bowling ball and an apple from a third-story window. Both objects hit the ground at the same time. From the experiment the student should conclude that

• the apple weighs more than the bowling ball.

• the bowling ball speeds up faster than the apple.

• more air friction is acting on the apple than on the bowling ball.

• gravity pulls on both objects, causing them to fall at the same rate.

One student rubs a balloon against his hair several times. Another student passes a comb through her hair several times. The students place the comb near the balloon and observe that the comb repels the balloon. Which is the most likely reason the comb is able to repel the balloon?

• The balloon has a positive charge and the comb is neutral.

• The balloon and the comb have the same electrical charge.

• The balloon has a negative charge and the comb is neutral.

• The balloon and the comb have opposite electrical charges.
