Why does density happen?

Density doesn't happen. It's simply a derived metric, a math term. But in general, density is a measure of quantity per unit basis. Here are some examples:

Q/U = kilograms of mass/volume in meters^3 = mass density

Q/U = number of people/area containing them km^2 = population density

Q/U = number of electrons in a wire/length of the wire meter = electron linear density

NOTE: The unit bases were volume, area, and length. My point is that density can be specified by any one of those three bases.

Density doesn't "happen". It is a measure of a material's (or substance's) mass per unit volume.

If you mean, what is the formula for density. It is

MASS divided by VOLUME.

Density is calculated by taking two measurements. These measurements are the mass of a sample and its volume. By dividing mass by volume, the sample's density is found.

What has to happen for an object to float?

For an object to float, it must displace an amount of fluid equal to its weight. This is known as Archimedes' principle. If the weight of the object is less than the weight of the fluid it displaces, the object will float; if the object is denser than the fluid, it will sink.


What would happen to the density of an object if the mass were doulbled and volume were tripled?

Original density = M/V.New density = (2M) / (3V) = (2/3) (M/V) = 2/3 of the original density.
