The relationship between density (d), mass (m), and volume (v) is given by m = dv. An object will float in water if its density is less that 1 g/cc and sink if its density is greater than 1 g/cc. Solve the preceeding formula for density, and determine if an object with a mass of 250 g and a volume of 200 cc will sink or float.Answer: _____________
What will be an ideal response?
d = m/v = 250 g/200 cc = 1.25 g/cc
