1. FOAM WOOD METAL Suppose you had three equally sized cubes of the following materials. Which one would be the heaviest?

2. The metal cube is heavier just as a brick is heavier than a sponge of the same size! They take up the same amount of space (volume) but the brick has more mass (heaviness of an object)!

3. Volume of a Rectangular Solid =_____

4. Volume of a Rectangular Solid =L x W x H 4cm 2cm 3cm V=

5. Volume of a Rectangular Solid =L x W x H 4cm 2cm 3cm V= 16cm 3 V= 27cm 3 4cm x 2cm x 2cm 3cm x 3cm x 3cm Volume is a measure of the physical space an object take up,

6. Density (ρ) is a measure of how compact the atoms or molecules in a substance are. It is a ratio of an object’s mass (m) to its volume (v). SAMPLE PROBLEM If I have a wooden block that has a mass of 20g and a volume of 26cm 3, what is its density? 6 ρ = m/v density (g/cm 3 ) or (kg/m 3 ) mass (g) or (kg) Volume (cm 3 ) or (m 3 ) ρ = m/v density (g/cm 3 ) or (kg/m 3 ) mass (g) or (kg) Volume (cm 3 ) or (m 3 )

7. Density (ρ) is a measure of how compact the atoms or molecules in a substance are. It is a ratio of an object’s mass (m) to its volume (v). SAMPLE PROBLEM If I have a wooden block that has a mass of 20g and a volume of 26cm 3. What is its density? m=20g v=26cm 3 ρ = 20g/26cm 3 =0.77g/cm 3 ρ = m/v density (g/cm 3 ) or (kg/m 3 ) mass (g) or (kg) Volume (cm 3 ) or (m 3 ) ρ = m/v density (g/cm 3 ) or (kg/m 3 ) mass (g) or (kg) Volume (cm 3 ) or (m 3 )

8. Density Formula Manipulation Multiply both sides by v Divide both sides by p
