What has a specific ratio of an object's density to that of water?
It is called the specific gravity.
What is ratio of densities?
If the second substance if water, then it is specific gravity. Otherwise, it is just relative density.
How do you calculate volume with specific gravity and mass?
An abstract, esoteric mathematical operation known as "division." Divide mass by density, and you get volume. A note for purists: Technically speaking, specific gravity is not density, it is a ratio of densities. However, since one of the materials in the ratio is water, and its density is well known, it's easy to calculate the density of a material from its specific gravity.
Why the objects sink?
Objects sink when the density of the object is more than that of the water.
What is the formula to find relative density of liquids?
Density of liquid A, relative to liquid B = density of liquid A/density of liquid B. The temperatures and pressures for both liquids must be specified.Often the reference liquid (liquid B) is pure water at one atmosphere and room temperature (20 deg C). In that case, the ratio is also known as specific gravity.Density of liquid A, relative to liquid B = density of liquid A/density of liquid B.

What is the ratio of an object to the density of water is called the objects?
specific gravity
What is the ratio of a objects density to that of water?
It's called "specific gravity."
Comparing the density of a liquid to the density of water is?
This is the determination of the specific density (the ratio liquid density/water density).
What is the ratio of and object's density to the density of water?
That is called specific gravity
Specific gravity is a ratio of the density of a substance to the density of?
Hydrogen monoxide.
What has a specific ratio of an object's density to that of water?
It is called the specific gravity.
What is the ratio of an object's density to the density of water is called the object's?
specific gravity
What determines wether an object will float in water?
An object will float in water if the object's density is less than the density of water. Relative density is the ratio of one object density with respect to the density of another object. Relative density of any object with respect to water is also known as specific gravity. Objects with a specific gravity less than one will float those with a specific gravity greater than one will not.
What is the number that compares an objects density to the density of water?
That is the specific gravity of the substance.
What is the term for the ratio of an object's density to that of water?
Specific Gravity.
What is the ratio of density?
Density is a derived unit: mass divided by volume.
Definition of specific gravity?
The English phrase 'specific gravity' means the ratio ofthe density of a substance to the density of water.
