Volumes can have the same volume but different masses if they have different densities. For example, a 10 x 10 x 10 block of lead has the same volume as a 10 x 10 x 10 block of pine wood, but the lead block weighs 22.6 times more than the pine block. Indeed, the density of lead is high enough that the lead block will sink in water, whereas the pine block's density is low enough that the pine block will float in water.
Volume is a measurement, the units are cubic metres or cubic centimetres. Litres = 1000 cm3
Mass is a measurement, the units are grams, kilograms.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
to that answer.
Mass is not weight. it is the amount of matter an object takes up. Therefore, saying that a lead block weights 22.6 times more than the pine block does not answer how an object can have different masses but the same volume.
What else can I help you with?
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different masses?
Their masses are different. (Mass = density * volume)
Can two objects with the same volume have different masses if so why?
Yes, two objects with the same volume can have different masses if they are made of materials with different densities. Density is the mass of an object per unit volume, so objects of the same volume but different densities will have different masses.
How can 2 objects have the same volume but different densities?
Two objects can have the same volume but different densities if they have different masses. Density is calculated as mass divided by volume, so if the masses of the two objects are different even though their volumes are the same, their densities will also be different.
Why can objects have the same size and shape but have different masses?
Objects can have the same size and shape but different masses due to variations in their density, which is the mass per unit volume. For example, a block of wood and a block of iron can be identical in dimensions but will have different masses because iron is denser than wood. This difference in density arises from the types of materials and their atomic structures, leading to different amounts of matter packed into the same volume.
Can something have the same volume but a different mass?
Yes, it is possible for objects to have the same volume but different masses if they are made of different materials with varying densities. Density is the measure of how tightly packed the molecules are in a substance, so objects with different densities can have the same volume but different masses.
What can you tell about two objects that have the same volume but different masses?
the two objects in question have different densities. The denser object has more mass.
Could two objects with the same volume have different masses?
Ceratinly. It depends on their densities.
What is the difference volume and mass?
mass is weight. volume accounts for size. density of items change therefore masses are not the same as volumes
If two objects have the same volume but one has a greater mass the one with greater mass?
will have a higher density. Density is the mass of an object per unit volume, so if two objects have the same volume but different masses, the one with greater mass will have a higher density.
What effect does the shape of an object have upon its density?
when you are comparing 3 objects of the same volume but different masses, which ever one is the heaviest, is the most dense and the lightest is the least dense. This is because Denisty= Mass ÷ Volume and when the volumes are the same, you just need to compare the masses.
If 2 objects were made from the same substance will they have the same density?
Not necessarily. The density of an object depends on its mass and volume, so two objects made from the same substance could have different densities if they have different masses or volumes.
Is it possible for two objects to have the same volume and different densities?
Yes, it is possible for two objects to have the same volume but different densities. Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume, so two objects with the same volume but different masses will have different densities. For example, one object could be made of a denser material than the other.
