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
How can the volume of an object could change without changing it's mass?
The volume of an object can change without changing its mass if there is a change in its density. For example, if a material becomes less dense, the volume could increase while the mass remains the same. This can happen through physical or chemical changes that affect the arrangement of molecules within the object.
When an object is heavier does that mean the object is more dense than other objects?
Not necessarily. The weight of an object is determined by its mass and the force of gravity acting on it, while density is a measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume. An object can be heavy without being dense if it has a large volume.
How do you modify a solid to make it float in a less dense fluid?
There is no known way to alter a object's density without chemically changing the substance. If you want it to float, remove enough of the substance so buoyant force could keep it afloat.
How does an object's density determine whether the object will sink or float in water?
the simple rule is that if your density is higher than the substance it will sink and if it is lower it will float density= mass divided by volume. Example:Mass 7.5g Volume:2cm3 so 7.5 Divided by 2= 3.75g/cm3 that is your density of object
How can you determine whether a soild object is more dense or less dense than water?
You can put a uniform object into water.If it sinks density is higher than water,if floats lesser than water.If you can place anywhere in water,density is equal to water.
What is more dense a cool or a hot object?
A cool object is generally more dense than a hot object. As a hot object heats up, its particles have more energy and move around more, causing the object to expand and become less dense. On the other hand, a cool object's particles have less energy and are more closely packed together, making it more dense.
How do you determine if an object floats or sinks in water?
If the object is less dense than water it will float, but if it is more dense it will sink.
How dense does water have to be for an object to float?
Denser than the object.
What is the relationship between object density the liquid density and the tendency of the object to float?
A less dense object or any other substance will float on a more dense liquid.
Why does an object that is more dense the liquid it is floating float?
An object that is more dense than the liquid it is floating in will sink because of buoyancy. The buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. If the object is more dense than the liquid, the weight of the object is greater than the buoyant force, causing it to sink.
Do the most dense things float or sink?
The density of an object determines if it sinks or floats. If an object is more dense than the medium it is in, it will sink. If it is less dense, it will float. Therefore, the most dense things typically sink.
