Why can't mass change density?

Mass doesn't change density because density is a qualitative property, meaning it is a quality for material's density, not a measure of how much density in the material. A quality is the same thing as a trait, for instance, pine trees have pine needles, even the little ones, it does not change because they are different sizes because it is a trait for a pine tree to have needles.

If the mass of an object cant be changed how do you increase the displacement of water?

change the density by altering the shape.


When mass and volume change what happens to the density?

When mass increases and volume stays constant, the density increases. When volume increases and mass stays constant the density decreases. When they both change, then the density will depend on the rate of change of mass and the rate of change of volume.


Can a increase in density result from an increase in mass and no change in volume?

Yes. Density is mass/volume so if mass increases so does density if volume does not change


If an objects volume is unchanged then how will its density change?

It won't change. Density is volume divided by mass, so if volume doesn't change, density doesn't change unless you change the mass of the object.


Is the density on earth of an object the same on a spaceship?

Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.Yes, density is defined as mass divided by volume, and mass doesn't change when you take something on a spaceship.


How do you change density?

To change density there are three ways. You can change the shape, mass or volume of the object


Do you need great pressure change to have a measurable change density in gases?

Density = mass / volume, so to change density you need to change the mass within a fixed volume or the volume of a fixed mass. Increasing the mass or decreasing the volume will increase the pressure by a linear degree, so no, the density of a gas is very easy to change. E.G.: Decreasing the volume by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.1%. Increasing the mass by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.0%.


What happens to the density as the mass and volume change?

it liquifies.


What is the mass in g of 429ml of this liquid?

This question cant be awnsered until you provide the density of the liquid. Mass = Volume x Density


How do you bypass a 1991 Mustang 5.0 GT mass air flow sensor?

YOU CANT ! Unless you change the computer to a speed density setup


Does changing the mass change the density?

Density never changes >.<


Does the shape of an object change its density?

Changing the shape CAN change the density. If you change it into a smaller shape, then you increase the density. However the mass will not change.
