How do you calculate volume if given bulk density?

Bulk density = dry weight / volume, then by knowing the dry weight and bulk density we can calculate the volume.


Why does wind erode dry sediment more easily than wet rock?

The wind does that because the sand is wet. Being wet means the sand has higher density and weight so it is less easily eroded.


What is Maximum acceptable percentage of dry density for soil in relation to maximum dry density?

i have bulk desity of soil and have natural moisture how can i get unit weight of soil


How would you determine the density of a powdered dry sample which soluble in water?

1. Apparent density: - weight a graduated cyllinder - put the sample in the graduated cyllinder up to a given volume (note this volume) - weight the graduated cyllinder with the sample - calculate the mass of the powder by difference - the density is the ratio mass of the sample/volume of the sample 2. True density of a powder: you need a helium pycnometer.

What is formula for dry density?

Density = mass divided by volume (mass/volume) Example: A block of wood weighs 3.5 kg (or 3,500 grams) It is 9 cm x 4 cm x 55 cm (9 x 4 x 55 = 1,980 cm3) 3500/1980 = 1.768 grams/ cm3


How many grams are there in a teaspoon of dry mustard?

You need to know the density of dry mustard to calculate the answer.


Dry oz per cup?

The problem here is that we are trying to compare measurements of two different properties - weight and volume. Dry ounces are units of weight and cups are units of volume. The relationship between the two is the density of the material in question. If you know what it is you are measuring and its density (weight per unit of volume), you can determine how much a certain volume (one cup) weighs (dry ounce).

Does the same volume of all dry substances weigh the same?

No. The weight of a given volume of a solid is dependent on its DENSITY (weight per volume). The value provided may be its absolute density (at a given temperature) or its specific gravity(density compared to another substance, usually water).
