In terms of physics (as oppposed to math) can anyone tell me what it means to state that 'object A is 10 times larger than object B'?.Surely this has nothing to do with any property inherent in the object itself such as mass or number of atoms .Nor can it be a property of the space that the object occupies because that would not be a statement about the object but would involve some kind of speculation about what that space would be like if the object were not present (e.g. how long it would take light to cross the region 'occupied'.)
