mass [kg] = volume [m^3] * density [kg / m^3]
From Newton's 2nd law of motion, weight [N] = mass [kg] * 9.8 [m/s^2] = volume [m^3] * density [kg / m^3] * 9.8 [m/s^2].
Rearranging, we get volume = weight / (density * 9.8) [m^3]
Find the weight in [N], then you will know the volume in [m^3].

How do you calculate volume if given bulk density?
Bulk density = dry weight / volume, then by knowing the dry weight and bulk density we can calculate the volume.
How do you find the volume of water and the volume of gas from bulk density?
You don't
What is Bulk density?
Bulk density is defined as the weight per unit volume of material. Bulk density is primarily used for powders or pellets. The test can provide a gross measure of particle size and dispersion which can affect material flow consistency and reflect packaging quantity. Bulk Density ASTM D 1895 B
How does tap density and bulk density differs?
"Tapping" is a procedure in which a powder is placed into a graduated cylinder which is then tapped to compress the sample before its volume is measured. This reduces the amount of air trapped in the material. "Theoretical" is a method of determining the density of a mineral from the volume of a single cell.
What are the differences between soil bulk density and particle density?
Bulk density is the dry mass of the solids (M sub t) / total volume (V sub t) Particle density is bulk density (P sub b) / 1 minus total porosity (1-theta).
How do you calculate the bulk density of pellets?
Mass divided by volume. Weigh the pellets to find the mass, then add the pellets to a measuring cylinder of water (or something of higher density than your pellets) and find the volume using the rise of water in the measuring cylinder
How can you demonstrate ther is space between molecules of water?
Calculate volume of molecule, calculate mass of molecule, compare to bulk density. Lower bulk density indicates empty space.
What is bunk density?
You're almost certainly asking about bulk density. I hear it mispronounced as "bunk" density daily. Bulk density is how much mass of a substance will fit into a given volume without any packing. It tells you about the particle density and also the packing order.
.what is the loose bulk density of iron ore?
The solid density of iron ore generally lies between 3.35 and 5.6 tonnes per cubic metre, depending on the particular characteristics of the ore being considered. When the ore is broken up, air spaces are formed between the particles of ore, and the "apparent" density will be lower. The loose bulk density is one measure, the compacted bulk density is another, and the fluidised bulk density is yet another. The loose bulk density is measured on a sample of loose ore, that has not been allowed to self-compact over time, and has not been mechanically compacted. It will generally measure between 50% and 60% of the value of the solid density.
How much does a of cubic meter of coal weight?
First find the bulk density of coal as per the respective grade. then multiply density with volume you will get mass
What is maint by bulk density?
Bulk density is a mainly a property of powders, granules and other separated solids, usually used in minerals like soil or gravel. It is defined as the total amount of particles over the total volume they occupy.
Difference between bulk density and true density?
Bulk density is to find in Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density Real density is here to find: http://www.istone.ntua.gr/Training_courses/wp1/real_density.html Apparent density is here to find: http://www.bulk-online.com/Forum/showthread.php?threadid=6440
