An objects density is the ratio of its mass to volume, m/v. The SI unit for density is g/m^3, or kg/m^3. Basically, it's how much mass is packed into the space it takes up. Dense means that the described object has a high density.

What does the word 'dense' mean in physics?
It means that there is much mass per unit volume. (in relation to density)
When an object is heavier does that mean it is more dense than other objects?
No. Density is mass divided by volume.
What is the noun of dense?
The noun forms for the adjective dense are denseness or density.
What makes an object dense?
Its Density
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases does the density become more or less dense?
less dense
Is Mars more dense than the Earth?
The Earth is more dense than Mars Mars mean density 3.9335 g/cm³ Earth mean density 5.515 g/cm3
When measuring density what does a steeper line on your graph mean?
it is less dense
What does least dense mean?
It means that out of 2 or more objects it is the one with the least density. Density is Mass/Volume.
Is the earths moon dense?
Relative to what. It has an mean density of 3.3464 g/cc.
What is mean by denser medium?
-- If you're talking about physical density, then a more-dense substance hasmore mass than a less-dense one has in the same volume.-- If you're talking about optical density, then a more-dense medium has ahigher refractive index (the speed of light is lower in it) than a less-dense one.Higher optical density does not necessarily also mean higher optical density,although I don't have a specific example to give you.
How many liter in one 25 kg of thick liquid?
The answer depends on the density of the liquid. However, thick does not mean dense. Mercury, for example, does not appear to be thick but it is very dense. On the other hand molasses is not particularly dense but it can appear to be thick - because of its viscosity.
How dense is very dense?
Talk about a city having a dense population, in which case the comparative form is denser, and its superlative form, densest. Whereas the comparative form, more dense,2 is used when comparing the density of two different substances, materials or liquids
How dence is xenon?
I suppose you mean dense?Density of xenon is 5.9g/L @ 273K & 1atm
What is the meaning of seeding density?
seeding density is dense
What are the characteristics of density?
dense
How density current forms?
Density currents - more dense seawater sinking beneath less dense seawater.
What is Density how is Calculated How does density change?
density is how dense an object is (see dense) it is calculated by dividing the mass by volume of an object. density can be changed by changing the size or shape or the object
