Density

What is density

Density of a material is the mass per unit volume of the material

The formula of density

p= m/V , where p is density, m is mass and V is volume

Unit for density

(g cm-3)

A triangle used for density formula

Water displacement method

Method that is used to measure the volume of an irregular objects

Phenomena related to the differences in density in everyday life

Ice is less dense than water, so ice floats on the surface

Who discovered the water displacement method

Greek scientist named Archimedes

Example of arrangement of materials in the measuring cylinder

Hypothesis for density

Materials that are less dense will float and will be above the materials which are denser whereas materials which are denser will sink and will be under the materials which are less dense

Innovation of objects using the concept of density

Layered juice
