This is not a sensible question. There are many types of wood, and many types of metal. It depends which ones you pick. Balsa wood has a very low density, lignum vitae is much higher. Most woods are less dense than water (so they float) but a few are denser. Most metals are more dense than water, but a few, such as sodium and potassium are less dense. Overall, I suppose most metals are denser than most woods, but potassium is less dense than some forms of eucalyptus wood.
What else can I help you with?
Will a block of wood with a mass of 1000 grams will sink in water?
No. It doesn't matter how heavy a block of wood is, it depends on the density of the wood. Generally wood floats as the density of wood is lighter than the density of the water, so it would float.
Does water affect density of wood?
yes water can increase the density of water as wood has the power to absorb water and so the density of water is drastically increased
How do you compare oil with wood as a fuel?
fossil fuels
Scratch test on metal or wood?
no.
A block of wood 3.0cm on each side has a mass of 27g what is the density of this block?
A cube, with 3cm sides, has a volume of 3x3x3 = 27cc The weight is 27grammes. Density = weight / volume = 27g / 27cc = 1g/cc = 1000Kg/M3 A relative density of 1.0 (same as water)
The density of balsa wood is 0.2gcm cube What is the mass of a 1 cm cube b5 cm cube of balsa wood?
The volume of the 5cm cube of balsa wood is 125cm³ (5cm x 5cm x 5cm). Using the density of 0.2g/cm³, we can calculate the mass by multiplying the volume by the density: 125cm³ x 0.2g/cm³ = 25g. Therefore, the mass of a 5cm³ cube of balsa wood is 25g.
Will the wooden cube float in water?
It depends on the density of the wood. If the wood is less dense than water, the cube will float. If the wood is more dense than water, the cube will sink.
How is the density of a cube of wood determined?
The density of a cube of wood is determined by measuring its mass and volume. First, the mass is obtained using a scale, and then the volume is calculated by measuring the dimensions of the cube (length, width, and height) and applying the formula for the volume of a cube (V = side³). The density is then calculated using the formula: density = mass/volume. This gives the density in units like grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).
Why is wood is more buoyant than metal?
Wood is more buoyant than metal because wood has a lower density than metal. Buoyancy is a result of the object's density compared to the density of the fluid it is in. Since wood is less dense than metal, it displaces more water and experiences an upward buoyant force that keeps it afloat.
A cube of wood measures 8 centimeters on a side and weighs 18 grams. What is the density of the cube wood?
To find the density of the cube of wood, use the formula for density: density = mass/volume. The volume of the cube is calculated as the side length cubed, which is (8 , \text{cm} \times 8 , \text{cm} \times 8 , \text{cm} = 512 , \text{cm}^3). Therefore, the density is ( \frac{18 , \text{grams}}{512 , \text{cm}^3} \approx 0.0352 , \text{grams/cm}^3).
What part of the block of wood remains immersed in water of density 1000kg per cm cube when the block of wood placed in water has density 700 Kg per m cube?
-- The aggregate density of the wood block is 700/1000 = 0.7 the density of water. -- So, as soon as the wood has displaced 0.7 of its volume in water, it has displaced its entire weight in water, and floats. -- The wood floats with 0.7 of its volume below the surface and 0.3 of its volume above it.
What is the density of a cube of wood with sides 5cm and a mass of 100 g?
0.8 gm per cm3
Which is heavier wood or metal and why?
Oh, dude, like, metal is heavier than wood because of its density. Metal atoms are all packed in tight like a crowded elevator, while wood atoms are just chilling with some space between them. So yeah, metal wins the heavyweight championship in the periodic table, man.
What is the mass of a cm piece of pine density is cm?
The mass of a 1 cm piece of pine wood depends on the density of the pine wood. To calculate the mass, you would multiply the density of the pine wood by the volume of the 1 cm piece (which is 1 cm^3 for a cube). So, mass = density x volume.
What are clamps made of?
clamps can be made of metal, wood and even high density plastic
Is wood or metal heavier?
This depends on the density of the shelving. There are Metal Wire Shelving Units that will be considerably lighter than wooden shelving, but there are also heavy duty shelving units that will be considerably lighter. Determine the maximum amount you want to store on the shelves then find a suitable shelving unit to use.
Why do lighter objects float higher in water?
It's because of the density of the object; for example wood floats in water because its density is less then the density of water, and metal sinks because its density is more then the density of the water.
