weight the metal ball first. then fill a graduated cylinder with water- it doesnt really matter how much, and put the metal ball in the water. measure how much the water level has increased by in mL. take the mass, and divide by the mL of water and then you get the density.

If it's an accurate sphere you can also measure its diameter and so calculate the volume, from which and the mass you can calculate the density.

How do you calculate the density of a metal ball without an overflow can or a graduated cylinder?
There are several methods that can be used to calculate the density of a metal ball. The density of a metal ball can be derived from the fact that the volume is: 4*(pi)*r^3/3 and the denisty is mass/volume. If the mass and moment of inertia are known but the dimensions of the metal ball are not, then you can use the fact that the moment of inertia of the ball is 2m*r^2/5 and solve for m to get r=(5I/2)^.5 and plug in the value for r into the volume equation then calculate the density of the ball by dividing the mass by the calculated volume.
How do you calculate mass of a ball?
To calculate the mass of a ball, you would typically use the density of the material the ball is made of and its volume. The formula to calculate mass is mass = density x volume. You would need to know the density of the material and measure the volume of the ball to determine its mass.
How does an air bubble inside a metal ball affect density?
It will increase the total volume, but it will hardly affect total mass. Remember the definition of density as mass / volume.
How do you measure density of bowling ball?
Float the ball in water and calculate the displacement.
A metal with a mass of 15.00 g occupies a volume of 1.32 cm3. Calculate the density of the metal. Using Table 1 in our lesson determine the identity of the metal?
To calculate the density of the metal, use the formula: density = mass/volume. Here, density = 15.00 g / 1.32 cm³ = 11.36 g/cm³. By comparing this density with values in Table 1, the metal likely corresponds to lead (Pb), which has a density of approximately 11.34 g/cm³.
A metal with a mass of 71.68 g occupies a volume of 8.00 cm3. Calculate the density of the metal. Using Table 1 in our lesson determine the identity of the metal?
To calculate the density of the metal, use the formula: density = mass/volume. Given the mass is 71.68 g and the volume is 8.00 cm³, the density is 71.68 g / 8.00 cm³ = 8.96 g/cm³. Referring to Table 1, this density closely matches that of copper, which typically has a density of around 8.96 g/cm³. Therefore, the metal is likely copper.
How do you get the density of a ball without knowing the radius or the volume?
Unless you can calculate or measure the volume, you cannot. And even if you could you would get the average density - of the material of the ball and the air inside.
If a ball is dropped into a very viscous liquid it will?
A solid metal ball would sink into the very viscous liquid, a hollow metal ball would float. The speed of descent is dependent on the density of the liquid.
A cube of metal has a mass of 0.357 kg and measures 3.01cm on a side calculate the density of the metal?
To calculate the density of the metal, you need to divide the mass of the cube by its volume. The volume of a cube is given by the formula V = side length^3. In this case, the volume would be (0.0301m)^3. Once you have the volume, you can then calculate the density by dividing the mass (0.357 kg) by the volume.
What is the density of a bowling ball with a mass of 3.0 kg and a volume of 0.0050m?
To calculate the density of the bowling ball, use the formula: density = mass/volume. The mass is 3.0 kg and the volume is 0.0050 m³. Thus, the density is 3.0 kg / 0.0050 m³ = 600 kg/m³. Therefore, the density of the bowling ball is 600 kg/m³.
A piece of metal density 3900 weighs 10newton in air calculate the apparent weight of the metal when it is completely placed in a fluid of density 410 g 10?
3900 what? Unanswerable - not enough information.
What do you use to find the density of a ball- bearing?
To find the density of a ball bearing, you would typically measure its mass using a scale and then calculate its volume using a method like water displacement. Once you have both the mass and volume, you can divide the mass by the volume to find the density of the ball bearing.
