Does the density of an object effect it's weight?

No, The weight is depends on gravity and total mass .


Is density how much something weighs?

Density is not how much something weighs. Density and weight go together but are not the same thing as each other.


Distinguish between mass density and weight density?

The difference is that the mass density not effect by gravity but weight density effect by gravity. for example if mass density cotn in earth equal to 20 kg/m3 and weight density equal to 196.2 N/m3 this cotn will change the weight density in the moon but mass density not change because gravity moon diffrent to gravity earth mass density =mass/volume (no gravity) weight density= (mass * gravity)/volume (gravity)


How does mass volume density and weight compare?

Density = Mass/Volume is a measure of the amount of matter in a unit volume of a substance. Weight is the effect of gravity acting on a mass.


What is the porpose of Density?

The porpose of Density is so that you can see if an object is more weight than something else.


What is density and what does it do?

Density is "weight per unit volume" and, among other things, it tells you if something can float.


How is density not mass or weight?

Density is defined as the mass of something divided by the volume of the same thing. During a careful reading of the definition, it becomes apparent that density is not mass, and that density is also similarly not weight as well, either.


What is weight density?

How much something weighs per pound.How much something weighs per pound.


Can weight effect how fast something is dropped?

Most definately.


When will something float?

When its average density is less than the liquid or gas that it is in.


How does density effect bouyancy?

Buoyancy is the ability to float, so if the density is high, it'll hold up something. (see? FLOATING. BUOYANCY.)


How can something that weighs a lot have small density?

Something that weights a lot change have a small density if it is a big object. The weight of an object is equal to mg, where g is acceleration due to gravity and m is mass. m = pv, where p is density and v is volume. If the density is small, but the volume is very big, then the mass will be big, causing the weight to be big.
