This was Arcamedie's great discovery.
Weigh the gold.
Place the gold in a beaker full of water
Capture and measure the amount of the water displaced
divided the weight by the volume and you have the density.
Density can be thought of as how compacted something is. Density is calculated by mass divided by volume.
you have to know the mass and volume of the object. density equals the mass divided by the volume. if the mass of something was 5 and the volume 1 the density would be 5
mass/volume
You know something has a high density when its mass is significantly greater than its volume. This can be assessed by calculating the density using the formula density = mass/volume. If the resulting value is substantially higher than that of common materials (like water, which has a density of 1 g/cm³), the substance is considered to have high density. Additionally, materials that feel heavy for their size often indicate high density.
to count the density of something you have to divide the mass of the object by its volume. ie.mass/volumeu can divide the mass of the object by its volume or see if it floats or sinksp = m/v
If something has a lower density than the substance it is in it will float.
Density can be thought of as how compacted something is. Density is calculated by mass divided by volume.
Density is how much mass something has for its volume.
No, when you squish something, its density does not stay the same. The density increases as the material is compressed into a smaller volume. This is because the mass remains the same while the volume decreases, leading to a higher density.
This density is under 1 g/cm3.
How many toys you can squeeze under your bed when cleaning your room. Lots of toys = high density.
You can change the density of something by altering its mass and volume. Increasing the mass while keeping the volume constant will increase the density, while increasing the volume while keeping the mass constant will decrease the density.
you have to know the mass and volume of the object. density equals the mass divided by the volume. if the mass of something was 5 and the volume 1 the density would be 5
Yes, water has a density of approximately 1
The density does not change.
divide the mass by the volume: mass/volume=density
No, volume alone does not determine if something will sink or float. The density of an object compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in determines whether it will sink or float. An object will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid, and it will sink if its density is greater.
