Density Simulation

If two cubes have the same mass, and their volumes are different, and that means their density’s different also. So, if one cube has the same mass as another cube, but the other cube has a bigger volume, the one with the bigger volume will float and the one with the least amount of volume will sink.
If two cubes have the same volume, but different masses, the density’s are different also. So it depends on how much mass are in each cube. If one cube has 6kg of mass and the other has 2kg, the 6kg cube would sink, because of the mass. The 2kg cube would float.
If the cubes had the same density, then they all would float. The formula for density is mass divided by volume. In order for the cubes to float, their density has to be less than the density of the water.
I really like your post. I like how much detail you go into in explaining density.
ReplyDeleteChloe, I like you explained it in like detail and I like how you gave an example and how you told about the formula
