Hmmm Yes ice does have the same mass as water before it melts. You can (almost) never lose or gain mass without adding or subracting mass from the system. Mass just can't appear or dissappear from nowehere. <span>
It is known as the law of conservation of mass. 

In water though, the volume that ice occupies is greater than that of water due to the arrangements of the molecules of ice. This is why you would be led to think ther is a change in mass. 

A good weigh to prove this to yourself would be to get an ice cube in a bowl and place it on a set of scales as it melts. You shouldn't notice any real mass change. 

p.s. my almost never is because that nuclear reactions can turn mass into energy through Einsteins equation E=mc2 but that is rare,</span><span>

What is required to cause acceleration
Vesna [10]
Constant force. Basicly in no gravity you have to keep puching smth for it to accelerate and once you stop it just would remain at the same speed. On earth the fact that something is falling faster and faster means it keeps beeing constantly pulled by gravity so the same principle applies

An iron railroad rail is 800 ft long when the temperature is 31°C. What is its length (in ft) when the temperature is −17°C?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

799.54 ft

Explanation:

Linear thermal expansion is:

ΔL = α L₀ ΔT

where ΔL is the change in length,

α is the linear thermal expansion coefficient,

L₀ is the original length,

and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given:

α = 1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C

L₀ = 800 ft

ΔT = -17°C − 31°C = -48°C

Find: ΔL

ΔL = (1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C) (800 ft) (-48°C)

ΔL = -0.4608

Rounded to two significant figures, the change in length is -0.46 ft.

Therefore, the final length is approximately 800 ft − 0.46 ft = 799.54 ft.

Which measure of an earthquake depends on how close you are to the focus?
Vsevolod [243]
<span>The intensity of an earthquake is dependent on one's proximity to the focus of the quake, also called the "epicenter" and is based on observations of the shaking of the ground on humans, structures, and the natural landscape.</span>

Do heavier objects fall more slowly than lighter objects?
aksik [14]
Think of it like this, gravity has to pull harder on the heavier object to make them fall at the same rate , but doesn't have to pull as hard for the lighter object , thus is why sometimes heavier objects fall faster then lighter ones
