u will need the density. density = mass / volume so mass = volume x density
In a simple way, since density = mass /volume, the density of an object can be changed by changing either mass or volume of an object .
Density. An object will float in a substance if its density is less than the density of the substance. The density of water is 1 kg /L or 1 g/ cm3. Anything with a density less than this will float.
It's actually pretty easy. If the density of the substance is higher than the density of water, the object will sink. If the density of the substance is lower than the density of water, the object will float. Be aware though that various substances may have dissolved into the water, thus changing its density. For example, seawater has a different density than fresh water.
D=m/v Density=mass/volume de= ma/vo Density = Mass/Volume
DENSITY : density is the ratio of mass and volume of the substance density=mass/volume RELATIVE DENSITY : It is the ratio of density of a substance to the density of water
Mass = Density x Volume Density = Mass/Volume Volume = Mass/Density
Density is an intensive property.
thickness
the relation between relative density and density is that relative density of a substance is its density itself without its unit.
Mass and volume are related to the sinking and floating of an object through their density. An object will sink if its density is greater than the density of the fluid it is placed in, and will float if its density is less than the density of the fluid. The relationship can be expressed as density = mass/volume.
Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of a substance, while relative density compares the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance (usually water). Relative density is dimensionless and is often used to identify substances or determine their purity based on their comparison to a standard substance.
The relative density of an object is determined by comparing its density to the density of water. It is calculated by dividing the density of the object by the density of water. If the relative density is less than 1, the object will float in water; if it is greater than 1, it will sink.
the rubies density is a 4 on the density scale
Density
The density of golfball is less then density of water
An object will float in a fluid if its density is less than the fluid's density. If the object's density is greater than the fluid's density, the object will sink. If the object's density is equal to the fluid's density, it will be suspended at a specific depth.
