What does denser and less dense mean?
Density is the amount of mass per unit of space/volume. For example, water has a density of around 1 kg/liter because 1 liter of water has a mass of 1 kg. Something is less dense if the mass per volume is lower and more if it is higher. Oil floats on water because it is heavier than the same volume of water (less dense), but a stone will drop to the bottom because it has a much higher density than its volume in water (denser).
What is denser oceanic crust or continental crust?
Oceanic crust: It is thinner than continental crust, or sial, generally less than 10 kilometers thick, however it is denser, having a mean density of about 3.3 grams per cubic centimeter.
Do air on the surface of earth warms the density of the air?
I don't know what you mean by "warm the density of the air" but if you mean heat up the air in general, I guess not if it is directly a few inches below the surface, because the earth's core doesn't warm it, and the sun can't warm it.
Is water denser than aluminum?
I'm sorry i don't know what aluminum is but if you mean aluminium then its simply a denser material made of denser elements! wood being made of its carbon based materials and other composites but aluminium is, well aluminium much lower but higher numbers on the Periodic Table! (well i think this is it >.<)
Why a 0.5g needle sinks into the sea while a ton of ice floats?
The 0.5g needle is denser than water, so it sinks. Ice is less dense than water due to its molecular structure and air trapped within, causing it to float. The buoyant force on the ice is greater than its weight, allowing it to stay afloat.
What is mean by denser medium?
-- If you're talking about physical density, then a more-dense substance hasmore mass than a less-dense one has in the same volume.-- If you're talking about optical density, then a more-dense medium has ahigher refractive index (the speed of light is lower in it) than a less-dense one.Higher optical density does not necessarily also mean higher optical density,although I don't have a specific example to give you.
Does more dense mean sink or float?
Typically, denser objects sink while less dense objects float. This is because denser objects have more mass per unit volume, causing them to displace less water than less dense objects, resulting in sinking.
What happens to the dirtier of a light wave when it passes from a less dense medium such as air into a more dense medium such as glass?
The answer depends on what on earth you mean by the "dirtier" of a wave.
Is water more dense at 100 degrees Celsius?
More dense than what? I presume you mean is it more dense at that temperature than at lower temperatures. The answer is no, it gets denser at lower temperatures, all the way down to 4 degrees centigrade. Then it gets less dense again.
What are soilless medium?
what does it mean to have a soil-less medium
What is less dense mean in science?
In science, "less dense" means that a substance has a lower mass per unit of volume compared to another substance. This is commonly observed when an object or material floats in a more dense substance, such as when ice (less dense) floats on water (more dense).
When measuring density what does a steeper line on your graph mean?
it is less dense
What does the gray area mean in a cat scan?
In a CT scan, gray areas typically represent tissues denser than air but less dense than bone, such as muscle, fat, or certain fluids. The varying shades of gray can indicate different types of tissues or abnormalities, with darker gray often representing fluid or less dense tissues, while lighter gray may indicate denser tissues. Radiologists analyze these gray areas to identify potential issues, such as tumors, infections, or injuries.
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
Is warm or cold water denser?
its according to what other temperature of water you are comparing it to. water is densest at 4 degrees C so water that is colder then 4 degrees C is technically less dense then water at 4C. in that case the warmer water is denser. but if you mean warm water to be >4C and cold water to be colder then warm water, but not below 4C, then cold water is more dense then warm water. but the question you are probably trying to get answered would have an answer of cold is denser
How do things float?
things float because they are less denser then the water. second things do not float, the molecules from the water support the molecules from the thing on the water. that is how something heavy can float. it just has to be boyent meaning it is spread out enough so there is more water molecules to hold it up. if you mean in the air it is the same concept.
What does denser and less dense mean?
Density is the amount of mass per unit of space/volume. For example, water has a density of around 1 kg/liter because 1 liter of water has a mass of 1 kg. Something is less dense if the mass per volume is lower and more if it is higher. Oil floats on water because it is heavier than the same volume of water (less dense), but a stone will drop to the bottom because it has a much higher density than its volume in water (denser).
