How do you calculate the density of matter?
Volume occupied divided by weight
Are liters used to measure weight?
Liters are used to measure volume. Volume is the amount of space that matter take up.
Why did the Archimedes need to know to work out the density of a substance?
Weight vs volume. PLace object in container already full of water. Measure volume of liquid displaced. weight object. weight divided by volume equals density
What do we measure matter in!?
It depends on the matter. Regular solid matter could be measured in metric measurements with a rule or a tape measure. Or in weight. Or in the volume of water the matter displaces, in which case the measurement would be in litres and millilitres.
Measurement of how close and how heavy are the particles of matter in an object?
Density is a measure of how close together the particles are in an object, and it is also related to the weight of the object. The denser an object is, the more particles it has in a given volume, leading to higher weight for the same volume. The formula for density is mass divided by volume, expressed in units such as grams per cubic centimeter.
How do you find the density of a penny?
To find the density of a penny, you would measure its mass using a scale, then measure its volume by water displacement or using a caliper to measure its dimensions. Divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the penny.
How do you calculate the density of a polyurethane foam?
Density is weight divided by volume. Measure the weight (with a scale), calculate the volume (which is easy to do if the foam is rectangular in shape - you might even want to cut out a rectangular piece, if your foam has an irregular shape), and divide the weight by the volume.
Does matter have weight and take up space?
Yes, matter has weight because it has mass, which is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Matter also takes up space because it has volume, which is the amount of physical space an object occupies.
What is weight divided by volume?
Weight divided by volume is density. Usually it is expressed as mass divided by volume. That is why a unit for density will be something like grams/liter, because mass is on the top and volume on the bottom.
Is measure milk by volume or weight?
Milk is measured by volume. It is not measured by weight.
What measure mass?
The amount of matter in something. Alternatively, it measures the number of particles in a sample.
How many grams are in 280ml?
Does not compute; one is weight the other is volume.
