Ethan is helping his father rearrange the furniture in their living room. They have two different tables that are the same size. When Ethan pushes on each table, he finds that it is harder to move table A than it is to move table B. Why does Ethan have to push with more force on table A than on table B? a Table A has more volume than table B. b Table A weighs less than table B. c Table A is less dense than table B d Table A has more mass than table B.
The correct answer is d) Table A has more mass than table B.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. Since the two tables have the same size, they have the same volume. However, table A requires more force to move because it has more mass, which means it has more matter packed into the same volume compared to table B. Therefore, Ethan has to push with more force on table A than on table B.
