Density is the mass divided by the volume.
The average density of a object will be the total mass of the object divided by the its total volume. pav = MT/VT

What is average density and what benefits does it have?
Hi there Density is the ratio of an object's mass divided by its volume. Relative density is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water, which is 1kg/1 is the density of pure water.
Which force determines whether or not an object will float?
This is archemedies principle. This is a balance between the force on the water displaced by gravity compared to the force on the floating object due to gravity. That is if the average density of the object that whishes to float is less then water then it will float. If it is greater then it will sink.For a boat the average density is the average of the density of the hull and the air inside the hull.
What is the floatation formula?
Formula for Buoyant Mass m(b) m(b) = m(object) x (1- (p(fluid)/ p(object))) m(object)= true mass of the object p(object)= average density of the object p(fluid)= average density of the surrounding fluid If the fluid density is greater than the average density of the object, the object floats. If less, the object sinks. Formula for Buoyant Force: F(buoyant) = -pVg p = density of the fluid V = volume of the object being submerged g = standard gravity on Earth (~ 9.81 N/kg) Archimedes Principle: "When a solid body is partially or completely immersed in water, the apparent loss in weight will be equal to the weight of the displaced liquid." Formula for Density of immersed object relative to the density of the fluid object is immersed in: Relative Density = Weight / (Weight - Apparent Immersed Weight)
How does the density of an object affect it's buoyancy?
If an object's density is higher than the density of the fluid it is displacing, it will sink, unless it's average density is lower. You can decrease the average density by altering the object's shape. Most of the materials used in shipbuilding are denser than water, but the shape of the ship spreads the density of the materials used over a larger area, giving it the ability to displace more more than it's own weight. If the object is less dense than the fluid it displaces, it floats. This is why ice and ships float.
What factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?
An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.
How does average density affect bouyancy?
Average Density is the total mass of an object divided by the total volume.
In order for an object to sink when placed in water the object's average density must be less?
no
What is another word to describe an object with neutral buoyancy?
It is average density.

What has a mass of 27 g and a volume of 10cm3?
An object with an average density of 2.7 g per cm3. Since only the average density is determined, it could be a hollow object made from a denser material, or an object made from a mixture of several substances such that the average mass is 2.7 g cm-3.

What is the mass of a sample divided by its volume?
Its density. Density is mass per unit volume.
What factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?
An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.
An object will float if?
density of the object < density of the fluid
The buoyancy of an object can be changed by changing the object's average density true or false?
The upthrust depends on the volume of object if volume is more the liquid displaced will be more and the force per unit area will increase and density is equal to mass per unit volume so by density the buoyancy.
