Distinguish between mass density and weight density?
The difference is that the mass density not effect by gravity but weight density effect by gravity. for example if mass density cotn in earth equal to 20 kg/m3 and weight density equal to 196.2 N/m3 this cotn will change the weight density in the moon but mass density not change because gravity moon diffrent to gravity earth mass density =mass/volume (no gravity) weight density= (mass * gravity)/volume (gravity)
Does weight define an objects mass?
No, weight is a force. Mass is proportional to density.
How to calculate weight of Expandable Polystyrene Thermocol if density is given?
density= mass/ volume (if you want the weight then you have to multiply the mass by 9.8, however I am sure that you mean the mass. Mass= kg, Weight= Newtons)
How is weight different than density?
density is weight compared to size and how much mass is in object weight is just weight.
Is density defined as a mass per unit of weight?
No, density is mass per unit volume.
What is the formula for calculating weight if density and volume are given?
Weight = (density) times (volume)The definition of density is mass/volume .Now [ weight = mass x gravity ], so [ mass = weight/gravity ], and [ density = weight/gravity x volume ] .So Weight = (density) x (volume) x (gravity)

What is the density of a vase?
Its density will be its mass in kilograms (sometimes weight can be used) divided by its volume in cubic meters.
Does density of an object depend on the gravity of the object?
Density is not affected by gravity. Density is affected by mass and volume, such that density = mass/volume. Weight, but not mass, is affected by gravity. Weight and mass are not the same thing.
How do you find weight when you have density and volume?
When density and volume are given, the formula for density can be used to determine the mass of the object. density = mass / volume mass = density * volume Assuming the object is on Earth, it can be assumed that g=9.80 N/kg. w= mg, or weight = mass * gravitational constant (of Earth) purely algebraically, weight = density * volume * gravitational constant.
Why is mass and weight necessary to find density?
the definition of density is the amount of mass contained in a set volumeto find density one must know mass and volume the equation is as follows: density= mass/volume hence, weight is not necessary to find density
What is the formula for volume if given density?
The formula for mass if density is not given is mass=volume/power
Does weight define an objects mass?
No, weight is a force. Mass is proportional to density.

How is density not mass or weight?
Density is defined as the mass of something divided by the volume of the same thing. During a careful reading of the definition, it becomes apparent that density is not mass, and that density is also similarly not weight as well, either.
Is it true that weight and size is used to measure density?
To calculate the density, find the mass and the volume. Mass divided by volume = Density. Each substance has a different density. Density is measured in g/cc (solids) or g/ml (liquids).
How is weight different than density?
density is weight compared to size and how much mass is in object weight is just weight.
