  • What is density defined as?
    Density is mass divided by volume
  • How is density mathematically expressed?
    Density = mass / volume
  • What units are used for density in this context?
    kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³)
  • What does 'mass' refer to in the density equation?
    Mass refers to the amount of material
  • What does 'volume' refer to in the density equation?
    Volume refers to the space occupied by material
  • In what units is mass measured in this context?
    Mass is measured in kilograms (kg)
  • In what units is volume measured in this context?
    Volume is measured in cubic meters (m³)
  • How does the density equation relate mass and volume?
    Density shows the relationship as mass per unit volume
  • What is the formula for density in symbols?
    density=\text{density} =massvolume \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}
  • What is the symbol for density in the equation?
    Density is represented by 'p'
  • What is the symbol for mass in the equation?
    Mass is represented by 'm'
  • What is the symbol for volume in the equation?
    Volume is represented by 'V'
  • What does the term 'cubed' refer to in the context of volume?
    'Cubed' refers to the three-dimensional space measurement
  • What does the term 'per' indicate in the density unit kg/m³?
    'Per' indicates a ratio of mass to volume
  • How does the density of a material affect its properties?
    Density influences buoyancy and stability of materials
