Weight would not exist w/o gravity. Weight is defined as mass times the force of gravity acting on that weight. Mass is constant, density is constant, and volume is constant, if gravity is the only variable.
The term specific gravity means density in comparison to that of water. Density is weight divided by volume. So to get the volume, pour the oil into a graduated cylinder or measuring cup (same principle). To get the weight, use a scale (a chemist would use a triple beam balance). Once you have the density you can divide it by the density of water, and the result is the specific gravity.
- The specific weight is the weight of a known volume of material at a given temperature and pressure; the unit of measure is kN/m3. - But if you think to relative density: Relative density (specific gravity) is the ratio between the density of the material to be tested and the density of water, at a given temperature and pressure; consequently no unit of measure for this ratio.
To calculate the weight of steel without using a steel table book, you can use the formula: Weight = Volume x Density. First, calculate the volume of the steel by multiplying the length, width, and height. Then, multiply the volume by the density of the specific type of steel being used.
find, at the given temperature and pressure, weight of HCL and volume of the same. Find density of HCL by Density of HCL= weight/volume Specific gravity of HCL= density of HCL/density of water
Density can be calculated from molecular weight using the formula density = (molecular weight) / (molar volume). Molar volume is the volume occupied by one mole of the substance and can be calculated using the ideal gas law or experimental data. Dividing the molecular weight by the molar volume gives the density of the substance.
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)
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.
weight = gravity times massand weight = density times volume
Relative density, or specific gravity, is the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of a given reference material. Specific gravity usually means relative density with respect to water.
The weight of an object is determined by volume, density, and gravity.
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)
You cannot find density without volume. Density = mass/volume
Volume, density, and gravity.
No, density and weight are not the same. Density refers to how much mass is in a given volume, while weight is the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. Density is calculated by dividing an object's mass by its volume, while weight is calculated by multiplying mass and the acceleration due to gravity.
Weight divided by volume is density. Usually it is expressed as mass divided by volume. That is why a unit for density will be something like grams/liter, because mass is on the top and volume on the bottom.
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.
Hmmm... technically false. Density is mass/volume - it is an intrinsic property. Weight is subjective to the force of gravity, while density is not.
