Research: The word density means the degree of compactness of a substance. There is density in everything in your everyday life (matter.)The formula to find density is d=m/v.The density of solids and liquids is usually stated as g/cm3‚ while gases are usually stated as kg/m3. A real life example of density would be that ice floats on water because it is less dense than water‚ or it sinks because it is more dense than water. The only substance that breaks this rule is ice. Archimedes was

What is the Great Awakening and what happened? What is the Enlightenment and what happened? In the 1730’s and 1740’s‚ a religious movement called the Great Awakening swept through the colonies.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: DENSITY Introduction According to the definition Density is the physical property that allows us to compare the mass of substances for a specific volume. In this Lab activity that took place in Deree College‚ Agia Paraskevi Campus we deal with the density of solids and density of liquids. The main purpose of this experiment is to understand what in reality density means‚ how we can measure it‚ how useful it is‚ what is the difference between density of solids and liquids

35.46 13 2.72g/cm3 53.95 11 4.9g/cm3 During the lab‚ the whole purpose of the lab was to determine density of both regular and irregular shaped objects. Throughout the lab I found out that both of the small and large silver rod‚ do not have the same density‚ and also found out that the gold rod is not real gold. My hypothesis is that since‚ the large and small silver rod has about the same density I believe that they would have about the same amount of volume. They both might displace the same amount

What Happened to the Mayan Civilization? The Mayan civilization was a thriving culture that occupied a large portion of Mesoamerica and suddenly disappeared around 900 AD. (Sayre‚ 2011‚ p. 391) Although researchers cannot find a definite answer explaining what happened to the Mayans‚ they have theories. One theory suggests mass exodus of the population due to draught‚ and another focuses on aliens. (Maya Culture Collapse: Current Theory‚ 2012; Ancient Aliens‚ The Mayan Conspiracy S04E01‚ 2012)

To do this we will be get the mass of the object and determine the volume of the object by placing it into a liquid. Then we will divide mass by volume and get its density.
