Density would go up 4 times
The volume will be reduced to a half of its original value. If the mass is (approximately) evenly distributed throughout the wooden block then the mass will also reduce to a half of its original value and the density will not change.

Density is inversely proportional to volume. If volume changes to half, density doubles. The substance doesn't matter.
The density decreases by half. You find the answer by knowing that density is equal to mass divided by the volume. If the mass stays constants and the volume is doubled, then the density is halved.
If the volume is halved, without change in mass, the density will be doubled.

Its the same, even though the mass is smaller, so is the volume, there for the mass to volume ratio stays the same when you cut it in half.
It is unchanged. The density is the mass divided by the volume, and as both of these numbers are halved the density does not change.
Purely from a definitional sense, density is size independent because it depends on the substance in question, not how much of it you have. From a mathematical sense, density is mass/volume. If the mass is equally distributed throughout the volume, then half of the volume, for example would have half the mass, preserving the same value of density.
When volume doubles density is cut in half. D=M/V D=12/6=2 D=12/12=1
No. You now have two pieces of the same density. They will half the mass, but the same density. Improved: No, the density is the same even if it's cut in half or how ever many pieces. Think about it this way. There's box A which masses out to about 10 grams. It has a volume of 10 cm^3( for those of you that don't understand the ^ it simply means that the 3 is an exponent) . If you divide it in half what will happen? It's not only the volume that's being cut in half, but also mass. In the equation it states that Density=Mass/Volume. We'll be using this equation to prove that this is correct. So to find the original density- D= 10g/ 10 cm^3 D=1g/cm^3 (or mL since 1cm^3= 1mL) D= 1g/mL To find the density for the half- D=5g/5cm^3 D=1g/mL As you can see, the density is still the same. DO NOT EVER divide the original density by 2, that's a common mistake people make. I hope this helped you.
