What equipment would you use to determine the mass of a tomato?
You can use a simple balance.
Why do scientists use density calculations to determine the kind of substance with which they are dealing?
so that they can have a better chance of finding the mass
How can we calculate the density of a irregular solid or a liquid?
You can dip the irregular solid in a water or other suitable liquid. This is how, you can measure the volume of the solid. The mass can be measured by weighing scale. Mass/volume = density. It is easy to measure the mass and volume of the liquid. First measure the mass the container. Then add the liquid to it. You will get the mass of the liquid. Then measure the volume of the liquid. Use the above formula to calculate the density of the liquid.
Your ultrasound had showed a solid mass in right breast?
yes
Is a cotton ball a solid?
The particules inside the Cotton Wool are tight together and are barly moving meaning that it is a Solid. If they were move loose and moving around than it would be a liquid. If there were not many particules and they are moving about rapidly than it would be a Gas. Even if Wool is mould-able it's still a solid.
What to scientists use to measure the mass of an irregularly shaped solid?
A balance is used to measure the mass of an irregularly shaped solid.
Density is used to determine all what except what?
Density can be used to determine the mass and the volume of a given solid.
What tools would you use t measure volume and mass of a solid?
To measure the volume of a solid, you would place the solid in a graduated cylinder or beaker (depending on the size of the solid) with a recorded volume of water. After putting the solid in the water, the water will rise, and subtracting the original volume from the final volume will give you the volume of the solid. Ex. Put a block in a graduated cylinder with 50 mL of water and the level rises to 75 mL. Volume=75-50=25 mL To determine the mass of the solid, you would simply mass it on a balance or scale.
Why the scientists know that there are 60 carbons in buckminsterfullerene?
They use Mass Spectrometry which determine the composition of molecule.
How would you find the mass of a paper clip?
You would determine its mass using a mass balance.
How can scientists determine the mass of a black hole?
By measuring it's gravity. The faster things are orbiting the black hole, the more gravity and the more mass it has.
How is density calculated and how do scientists use it?
Density is mass divided by volume. Can be used to determine if an object will float in a liquid or not.
One way in which scientists can determine the surface temperature of a star is by its A. brightness. B. composition. C. color. D. mass.?
its color does determine the temperature of star.
What are the factors which determine a chemical change?
Change in colour, mass and state(ie liquid, gas or solid)
What steps would you take to determine density of an egg?
You would first determine the mass of the egg. Then you would need to determine the volume of the egg through water displacement. Then you would need to divide its mass by its volume, and that will give you the density.
Millikan's oil drop experiment helped determine the mass of an electron by allowing scientists to measure which of these?
the charge carried by an electron A+
Will a solid have the same mass on the moon?
Yes, a solid would have the same mass on the moon as it would on earth. An object's mass is independent of the force of gravity, so its mass would remain the same even in the absence of gravity (e.g. on a spaceship). What would change is the weight, which is measured with mass in proportion to gravity.
