Water has a density of 1 gram/cm3.
To calculate the density of any object all you need to do is measure the mass and volume. Density = mass/volumeThe density of ice is less than water(which is why only the top of lakes freeze in the winter). For those that want to find the density while it is floating in water look below: Imagine a cube of ice floating in water. In order for it to float the force of gravity on the ice must equal the force of buoyancy on the ice. The force of buoyancy as described by Archimedes is equal to the mass of water displaced by the ice. Lets say the ice is x cm below the level of the water. then: force buoyancy = (density of water)*volume*gforce buoyancy = (density of water)*(area of ice cube)*x*g where g is the acceleration due to gravity equating this to the force of gravity gives: (density of water)*x = (density ice)*(total height of cube) hope that helps.
If the object has a regular shape, like a cube or sphere, its volume can be calculated readily from solid geometry. Weight divided by volume gives density. For an irregular shape, one trick for finding volume is to submerge it in a calibrated container of water. The amount of increase in the volume of the water is the volume of the object. * * * * * Mosttly correct but density = mass/volume not weight/volume. Mass is not the same as weight.
Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume. In this case, the mass of the cube is 8mg (milligrams). First, convert the length and width from cm to m: 2cm = 0.02m, 4cm = 0.04m. The volume of the cube would then be 0.02m x 0.04m x 1m = 0.0008 m^3. Finally, divide the mass (8mg) by the volume (0.0008 m^3) to find the density: 8mg / 0.0008 m^3 = 10,000 mg/m^3.
33.35 grams I used the density=mass/volume formula. To get the volume of a cube you do the following: 1.2 *1.2 * 1.2=1.728 Now you plug your values in the formula: density=mass/volume mass=density*volume mass=19.3 * 1.2 = 23.16 mass=33.35 grams
Measure out a specific volume of water, such as 100mL. Determine the mass of that volume of water. Density = mass/volume, so divide the mass by the volume, and you will have the density.
That would depend on the temperature of the cube and the water along with the volume of water and the mass of the ice cube and its area.
Well its quite easy: Density=Mass/Volume Volume=Mass/Density SO if mass and density of a cube are given you can easily find its volume.
Say for example you have an ice cube of which you need to find the volume..First find something that sinks in water..Next,dip it in water and find the volume of water it displaces..For this a Decanting Can might come in handy..Now tie the ice cube with a string of negligible mass and thickness to the mass that sank in water and lower it into water so that the ice cube is completely immersed in water..This time the volume of water displaced will be greater..Subtract the higher value from the lower and you have the volume of ice cube(or any other material for which you are to determine the volume)
To find the mass of a cube by multiplying the density times the volume of the cube. The volume can be found by multiplying the height times the height times the length.
You don't need the mass to get the volume. Your cube's volume = 1*2*3 = 6 cubic metres.
You measure its mass and volume and then density = mass/volume.
This question cannot be answered without knowing the mass of the cube. Also, the volume of the cube cannot be 8 cm which is a linear measure.
Density=mass per volume =1g/cm cube density of 170mL water=170g per 170mL =1g/cm cube
volume=mass\density
LXWXH= volume find the mass and divide it with the volume mass divided by volume equals density
Density = mass/volume Density of the cube = 8g/2cm3 = 4g/cm3
If the same mass is contained in a greater volume, that means that the mass is spread thinner, so there's "less mass in each little piece of volume". That's the same as saying "lower density".
