Density:

 

The density of a material measures the amount of mass per unit of volume. To find it, you need to know the mass and volume of the object. The formula is.

Note: The symbol for density is r

 

Other equations are: M = V x r  or  M = Vr          Equation for working out mass

                             

                                  V =       Equation for working out Volume

 

The units are: mass units/volume units

 

E.g: kg/m3

 

Example Questions: 

 

An object has a mass of 25 kg and a volume of 5m3. What is it’s density? 

 

r =  

 

r = 25/5 

 

r = 5 kg/m3

 

An object has a density of 100 kg/m3 and a volume
