In a simple way, since density = mass /volume, the density of an object can be changed by changing either mass or volume of an object .

Does density of an object change with altitude?

I am assuming that you mean mass of an object. The answer is no, it does not change. Mass (Density) stays the same wherever the object is, only its weight will change if the force of gravity is different.


Does the density of an object change if the object is cut in half?

No


How do you change density?

To change density there are three ways. You can change the shape, mass or volume of the object


Can an object's density change?

Yes.


If you change the mass of a moving object you change its?

density


Why doesn't changing an object's shape or size affect it's density?

Density is determined by the mass of an object and its volume. Changing the shape or size of an object alters its volume but not necessarily its mass, so the density remains constant. The distribution of mass within the object may change, but overall density remains the same.


How can changing the shape of an object lower it's overall density?

Changing the shape of an object can lower its overall density by increasing the volume of the object while keeping its mass constant. This decrease in density occurs because density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume, so increasing the volume while keeping mass constant will result in a lower density.


What will change the density of an object?

The density of an object is determined by its mass and volume. If the mass of the object increases and its volume stays the same, the density will increase. If the volume of the object increases and the mass stays the same, the density will decrease.


Does the shape of an object change its density?

Changing the shape CAN change the density. If you change it into a smaller shape, then you increase the density. However the mass will not change.


What is Density how is Calculated How does density change?

density is how dense an object is (see dense) it is calculated by dividing the mass by volume of an object. density can be changed by changing the size or shape or the object


Why does changing shape of an object dose not change the density?

Density is a property that depends on the mass and volume of the object, not its shape. Changing the shape of an object does not alter the amount of mass or volume it contains, so the density remains the same.


What could you do to an object to change its density?

Adding heat to the object if the object is a solid.
