Question 2 • IA-Physical Science A-CR

Imagine that Kevin can instantly transport himself between Planet X and Planet Y. Which statement could be said about Kevin in this situation?

Answer
A
Kevin’s weight may change between Planet X and Planet Y.
B
Kevin’s volume may change between Planet X and Planet Y.
C
Kevin’s mass may change between Planet X and Planet Y.
D
Kevin’s matter may change between Planet X and Planet Y.

Explanation

Weight depends on the strength of gravity, which can be different on Planet X and Planet Y. So Kevin’s weight may change when he travels between them. His mass and the amount of matter in him do not change just because he moves planets, and his volume would not normally change either.
