The Masses

In physics, "The Masses" refers to objects with mass—anything that has matter and resists changes in motion due to inertia. Mass is a fundamental property that determines how much an object resists acceleration when a force is applied. It also relates to gravitational attraction; more massive objects exert a stronger gravitational pull. Mass is measured in units like kilograms or grams. Unlike weight, which depends on gravity, mass remains constant regardless of location. Understanding mass is crucial in studying the behavior of objects, their interactions, and the fundamental forces in the universe.
