Which has a greater density a piece of bread or a piece of steel of the same size why?
Density is how much mass is compressed into a state of volume. Considering bread is made of water, carbon, and other light molecules, it doesn't have much mass. Steel has much more mass and thus will be more dense; however, if u can compress the bread until it has the same mass at the same volume of the steel, it will have the same density.

What is true of the mass and volume of the floating object?
Objects that are less dense than the environment in which they are immersed will float, unless they are tethered.
Which substances would 2 cm cubed have a mass greater than 6 grams?
That could be ANY substance whose density is greater than 3 grams per cm3. Examples include but are not limited to mercury, copper, gold, iron, lead, platinum, uranium, brass, silver, and steel.
What is the density of cold formed steel?
The answer depends on the grade of the steel, but 7.85 g/cm3 is generally accepted for plain steel. If the steel has added alloying elements such as tungsten, then it can be as high as 8.05 g/cm3
Frank has a sample of steel that weighs 80 grams. If the density of his sample of steel is 8 gcm3 what is the sample and volume?
Its is 10 cm³ hun
Should a material have a higher or lower density to float in water?
A material needs a lower density than water to float in water. Ships float in water because their average density is lower than water. The average density includes the steel hull and the air inside the hull.
What is density out of water carbon dioxide and steel which has greater density?
Steel has the greatest density of the three.
Is density of you beam the same with density of steel?
The density of a substance stays the same, no matter how much space it takes up.
Why will a ship of steel sink while a ship of air wont?
It's possible that a ship of steel will not sink as well. But if it will sink, it would be because the density of steel is greater then the density of water, while air's density is lower then water's.
Is steel or water less dence?
Steels density is greater than water
How does the speed in steel compare with the speed in air?
The speed in steel is much greater because, although the density of steel is greater than air the forces are much greater. Check out Wikipedia.org, "The World's Encyclopedia" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound#Speed_of_sound
A 1kg magnet and a 05kg piece of steel are 25 cm apart Then they are attracted together how do they move?
The 1kg magnet will exert a greater force on the 0.5kg piece of steel, causing them to move towards each other. The 0.5kg steel piece will accelerate faster towards the magnet due to the greater force acting on it by the magnet.
Can a solid ball of steel float in salt water?
yes =============== Another opinion: No. Depending on its exact composition, the density of any steel is somewhere between 7.48 to 8.0 times the density of water. Anything whose aggregate density is greater than that of water sinks in it.
How can a ship made out of steel with a density much higher than the density of water float on the water?
The steel has a density greater than water; but the ship does not. To calculate density, you divide mass by volume. This includes the mass - and the volume - of any air trapped inside the ship.
How does a steel boat float and a flat piece of steel with the same mass sinks?
There is air in the boat so the overall density is less. The weight is spread out.
How many half inch steel make a ton?
The number of half-inch steel plates or bars that make a ton depends on the dimensions and density of the steel. Steel typically has a density of about 490 pounds per cubic foot. To calculate, you would need to determine the volume of a single half-inch steel piece and then divide the total weight (2,000 pounds for a ton) by the weight of that individual piece. For example, if each half-inch steel piece weighs 10 pounds, then 200 pieces would make a ton.
What is more dense a 5 gram piece of lead of 10- gram piece of steel?
density is a physical property of the material, it has nothing to do with the size of the piece. lead is 11.35 g/cc iron is 7.874 g/cc steel is between 7.75 and 8.05 depending upon type of steel.
What is the weight of 4140 steel?
The weight of 4140 steel varies depending on the form and dimensions of the material. On average, the density of 4140 steel is around 0.283 lb/in³. Therefore, to calculate the weight of a specific piece of 4140 steel, you would need to know its dimensions and then use the density to calculate the weight.
