Does mass determine whether an object will float or sink?
The density of the object (mass/volume) compared to the density of the liquid.
How is density calculated and how do scientists use it?
Density is mass divided by volume. Can be used to determine if an object will float in a liquid or not.
How can you use density to determine whether an object wil float or sink in a fluid?
If the density of the object is less than the density of the water it is placed in, the object will float and vice versa.
What two forces determine whether an object floats or sinks?
Buoyancy and pressure determine whether the object floats or sinks.
How can density be use to determine whether an object will float or sink in a fluid?
When you have the density of both the object and the fluid, just see which has a higher density. If the object has a higher density than the fluid, the object will sink. If the object has a lower density than the fluid, the object will float.
What is density and how can it be calculated?
density is whether an object can float or not.To calculate it you need to divide mass over volume. MASS = DENSITY VOLUME
Hoe does an objects density determine whether the object will sink?
If an objects density is less than the density of what it is put in it will float. If the objects density is greater it will sink.
What is density calculated by?
Density is calculated by dividing the mass and volume of an object.
What is Density how is Calculated How does density change?
density is how dense an object is (see dense) it is calculated by dividing the mass by volume of an object. density can be changed by changing the size or shape or the object
What 2 factors determine the density of an object?
The mass divided my the volume determine the density of an object
How does the relative density of objects determine whether objects float or sink in liquids?
If the density of the object is greater than that of the liquid then it will sink. If the density of the object is lower it will float. To calculate density; density=mass(g)/volume(cm3)
How does the relative density of objects determine whether objects float or sinks in liquids?
If the density of the object is greater than that of the liquid then it will sink. If the density of the object is lower it will float. To calculate density; density=mass(g)/volume(cm3)
