A windsock is made out of 'loose' materials, because if the fabric was dense the forces of air moving fast might tear the sock. Loose material allows the wind blow partially through the sock.

What influence does the planetry size have on the weight of an astronaut?
In the most general terms, the larger the planet the heavier will be an astronaut or any other object on the planet. But it is really mass that will determine the gravity and not the geometric volume of the planet. A larger planet made up of less dense materials may have less gravity than a smaller planet made of very dense materials.
What is the inner layer made of?
very dense and hot
How do you recognize gold when panning?
Gold is very dense thus will typically sink to the bottom of the pan, along with other dark dense materials. It will stand out, among these.
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
Why is the inner core in solid state despite the high temperature?
The inner core is solid because it is made of very dense, or heavy, materials - like iron and nickel. Even though it is very hot, these materials don't melt very easily, so they stay solid. Answer 3: It turns out that many materials can be a solid at a higher temperature if the pressure is also higher.
Why are lifesaving rings made of Polystyrene?
Polystyrene is not very dense.
How dense is gold?
very very dense :)
What are soccer helmets made of?
The very few players who use them use ones of a very dense foam.
What part of the rain forest is very dense?
Most of the rainforest is very dense, but the understory and canopy are both pretty dense. The canopy and the understory are both very dense but the undersrory is the most dense.
Why do protons weight so much when they are made only 3 quarks?
They are very dense
Is it true molten material in the asthenosphere rises in convection currents because heated materials become more dense?
Actually, hot, less dense material rises, and cold, denser material sinks. Denser material will be heavier (per unit volume) and gravity therefore pulls it down. Less dense material has buoyancy and rises. It's very logical.
What would a dense liquid do to materials inside it?
Density is just one aspect to the physical properties of a liquid if the liquid is very dense, less dense materials can float on it and denser materials will sink into it for example, salt, a moderately dense mineral, can float on mercury, a very dense liquid at room temperature. Viscosity is the next aspect to liquids and probably the word you were looking for when the question was asked. A high-viscosity liquid is very thick. Gelatin is a very Viscous liquid; Water, a not-so-viscous liquid. high-viscosity liquids slow down the movement of objects inside of them. hence why Grandma can make Fruit suspend inside of Jello. Chemical properties are the third aspect. if you put pure potassium inside of water, the water would react and make a fireball. (however it is ill-advised to do so unless you are experienced with chemicals
