ANSWER:No. The mass will be halved but the density will remain the same.

___________________________________________________________

The density will remain the same since the formula for density of an object is mass/volume. When you split and object, the mass is divided by 2, and the volume is divided by 2 (or whatever fraction you want to cut your item). If you would, compare mass/volume=mass divided by 2/volume divided by 2.

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.


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.


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
