I think its half the one of the water.
So 500 kg/m^3

What if pressure is applied to a cube until its volume is half of its original volume what will its new density be?
If the volume is halved, without change in mass, the density will be doubled.
What is the mass of one half of the cube?
It will be half the mass of the whole cube.
How does the density of an object that sinks into a fluid compare to the density of the fluid?
Oh boy. Density is the mass per volume...grams per cubic centimeter, tons per cubic yard, whatever. Water's density is one gram per cubic centimeter. An object with lower density than water will sink into water until the number of cubic centimeters corresponding to the mass of the object are below the surface of the water. If the object is 100 cubic centimeters and it weighs 50 grams, half of it will be below the surface and half above. This is buoyancy, or "floating." Cool so far? If an object's density is more than one gram per cubic centimeter, the whole thing will be below the surface of the water. Because the water can't support the weight of the item, it will sink to the bottom given enough time. If it sinks, its density is greater than water...but without weighing it, we can't say how much greater because an item with mass of 5 grams and density of 1.1 grams per cc will sink as surely as a 300-pound anvil with density of 7.2 grams per cc. It just won't do it quite as fast.
If wood had a density of 3.21 grams and a volume of 3 cubic centimeters would it float in water?
It will definitely float. it's all about density. Density= weight/volume D= 157/412=0.38 g/cm3 < 1 g/cm3 for water. It will not only float, but also, will float more than half of the material above the water.
Will a floating solid sink if the liquid is heated?
A liquid will actually float when it is hotter than the liquid around it. It is because the density of a hot liquid is less than a cold liquid due to the more rapid movement and greater spread of particles.
What if pressure is applied to a cube until its volume is half of its original volume what will its new density be?
If the volume is halved, without change in mass, the density will be doubled.
If you have a half dollar and pencil and some water which of these have the greatest density?
The half dollar has the greatest density because it will sink, the water has more density than the pencil because the pencil will float.
What is half a cube called?
half of a cube is called a tetrahedron
What is the mass of one half of the cube?
It will be half the mass of the whole cube.
How long does it take for a sugar cube to dissolve in one half cup of hot water or and in one half cup of cold water?
The sugar cube in the hot water will dissolve faster because there are more and higher energy collisions between the water molecules and the sugar molecules which will cause the sugar to dissolve faster.
If you have a half dollar a pencil and some water Which has the greatest density?
Water it depends how much water and many pencils. etc
How do you find the density of a key?
fill a graduated cylinder half way up. then drop it in. see how much the water has rose. this is your density. this is also called water displacement
What is the volume of one half of the cube?
The volume of a cube is x3 where x is the side length. Therefore the volume of half a cube would be x3/2. For instance, if the side length of a cube was 2cm, the volume of one half would be 23/2 which comes out at 4cm3
What does one -half cube mean?
It could mean a cube tat has been cut into a half so that it is a cuboid. Or, it could mean a cube, each of whose sides is half a unit.
Is derivative of cube volume surface area of the cube?
No, it is not. It is half of it.
Would 1.4 gmL sink or float in water?
As a general rule, anything that is more dense than the medium they are floating in will sink and things that are less dense than the medium will float. So, if you are looking into whether or not 0.85 g/ml will sink or float in water, which has a density of 1.0 g/ml, then the answer is it will float. The mechanism that will keep the object afloat is the bouancy of the medium. The force of bouancy is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.
What will happen if an object is floating in a tub filled completely with water and if it is shifted to a tub half filled with water?
It will move from one tub to the other. What is it you want to know?
