Clay work has both mass and volume. Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, while volume refers to the amount of space the object occupies. Clay has mass because it is made of particles, and when shaped into an object, it takes up a certain amount of space, giving it volume.
Mass and volume are related through density, which is the amount of mass per unit volume of a substance. An object with a larger volume but the same mass as a smaller object will have a lower density. Conversely, an object with the same volume but more mass will have a higher density.
To calculate the mass of an object, you can use the formula: mass = density x volume. Multiply the density of the object by its volume to find the mass. Make sure the units for density and volume are compatible, such as grams per cubic centimeter for density and cubic centimeters for volume.
One way, if the clay is malleable, is to reshape it into a cuboid and measure its length (L), width (W) and height (H). Then volume = L*W*H cubic units.Displacement methods will often not work either because the clay will absorb the water (or other solvent), or it might disintegrate.
To work out the density of an object, you need to know its mass (weight) and volume. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of the object by its volume.
The answer is the VOLUME
divide the mass by the volume: mass/volume=density
To calculate the density of the clay, use the formula: density = mass/volume. Given that the mass is 1000 grams and the volume is 500 cm³, the density would be 1000g / 500cm³ = 2 g/cm³. Therefore, the density of the clay is 2 g/cm³.
That question doesn't mean anything, mass is mass. If you are asking which has a greater mass per unit volume, also known as density, then the air will have a lower density than clay.
Density = mass/volume = 22/10 = 2.2 grams per cm^3.
Yes, if you reshape a block of clay, its volume will remain the same, assuming no clay is added or removed during the process. The mass and density of the clay are conserved, so while its shape may change, the overall volume stays constant.
Density is mass divided by volume.
Knowing the volume of a substance and its density you can work out the mass of that volume. Alternatively you could measure the mas using a mass balance.
Density x volume:)
you can't unless you have a set of weighing scales mass = density * volume density is needed to work out mass if you have volume if you worked out the mass then you could divide it by volume to get density
Mass and volume are related through density, which is the amount of mass per unit volume of a substance. An object with a larger volume but the same mass as a smaller object will have a lower density. Conversely, an object with the same volume but more mass will have a higher density.
volume = mass ÷ density. 1 tonne = 1000 kg The volume depends upon the density of the clay which will vary with how wet it is. Dry clay has a density of 1600 kg/m3 → volume = 1000 kg ÷ 1600 kg/m3 = 0.625 m3 Wet clay has a density of 1760 kg/m3 → volume = 1000 kg ÷ 1760 kg/m3 ≈ 0.568 m3 Which means the volume of 1 tonne of clay will be in the range of approx 0.568 m3 to 0.625 m3
volume is the space inside a mass, like a building's dome.
