Do a pound of cotton and a pound of lead have the same density?
No. Density is equal to mass over volume. It has nothing to do with the weight.
Why is steel denser then iron?
Density is mass divided by volume. If we assume the mass of the iron and the cotton is the same, you will find that the iron will occupy less space (less volume) than that of the cotton. The value of a mass divided by a small volume is higher than the value of the same mass divided by a larger volume. If we assume the volume of both the iron and the cotton is the same, you will also find that the mass of the iron will be higher than the mass of the cotton. The value of a large mass divided by a volume is larger than the value of a small mass divided by the same volume. In both assumptions, the value of mass divided by volume for the iron is higher than the value of mass divided by volume for the cotton. Since density is mass divided by volume, the density of iron is therefore higher than the density of cotton.
What is solution in converting density?
density = mass/volume mass = density x volume volume = mass/density
What is the equation to calculate density?
d=m/v density= mass/ volume
How does mass volume and density work together?
density equals mass/volume, volume equals mass/density, and mass equals density times volume.
How do you calculate density of raw cotton?
This would depend on its volume and mass. Density = mass / volume. If the cotton is compressed it will occupy less volume, so the density becomes greater.
Do a pound of cotton and a pound of lead have the same density?
No. Density is equal to mass over volume. It has nothing to do with the weight.
How to find the density of lighter materials like cotton or any natural fiber?
density equals mass divided by volume. :)
What is the equation for mass volume and density?
Mass = Density x Volume Density = Mass/Volume Volume = Mass/Density

Why is density so important?
By definition, density is mass divided by volume. Its a measure of total space taken up by a mass (any physical quantity). As an example to show why density is a important physical quantity, a kilogram each of Iron and cotton would weigh (mass) same, but a KG of iron occupies very little space (Volume) as compared to a KG of cotton. This is where density plays a major role.
What is the density of a cotton ball?
If you want to determine the density of the cotton ball, then you must determine the volume of the fiber in relationship to the total volume.Density (grams per milliliter – g/mL) = Mass (g) ÷ Volume (mL); or d = m / V.Each cotton ball will be slightly different and you will have to do the math on your own. You could weigh 10 and then divide by 10.
Which is more denser one kg cottan or one kg sand?
Sand is denser than cotton, and density is an intensive property, so it doesn't matter if you have 1 kg or 1 g. Since density is mass/volume, the same mass of cotton will occupy a greater volume than that for sand, thus making the denominator larger, and the density less.
Volume of air formula?
Volume = mass / Density Mass = Volume * Density Density = Mass / Volume
What is density of honey and cotton?
yes,the density of cotton is more than honey
How do you find volume when the density and mass are known?
Density = Mass / Volume Rearranging this gives: Volume = Mass / Density Mass = Density × Volume
How do you work out the mass of an object with the density and the volume?
Density = (Mass) divided by (Volume) If you know the density and volume, then Mass = (Density) times (Volume)
