Weight to Density Calculator:
Enter the values of weight of the object, W(kg) and volume of the object, V(m3) to determine the value of Density, D(kg/m3).
Weight to Density Formula:
Density signifies the mass per unit volume of a substance, typically measured in kilograms per cubic metres. It reflects how much mass is contained in a specific volume of the substance.
Higher mass in a given volume translates to higher density.
Different materials have varying densities due to differences in atomic or molecular composition and arrangement.
The density of a substance can be calculated using its weight and volume, considering the gravitational acceleration.
It’s important to distinguish between weight and mass. Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is a force due to gravity.
An accurate measurement of the object’s volume (V) is crucial for calculating density. Volume can be calculated based on the object’s shape (e.g., sphere, cube) using geometric formulas.
Weight is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. It depends on the object’s mass and the gravitational pull acting on it. Weight is measured in Newtons or kilograms.
Density, D(kg/m3) in kilogram per cubic metres is equal to the weight of the object, W(kg) in kilograms is divided by the product of gravitational acceleration (9.81 m/s2) and the volume of the object, V(m3) in cubic metres.
Density, D(kg/m3) = W(kg) / 9.81 / V(m3)
D(kg/m3) = density in kilograms per cubic metres, kg/m3.
W(kg) = weight in kilograms, kg.
V(m3) = volume in cubic metres, m3.
Weight to Density Calculation:
- Find Density:
Given: W(kg) = 98.1kg, V(m3) = 0.1m3.
Density, D(kg/m3) = W(kg) / 9.81 / V(m3)
D(kg/m3) = 98.1 / 9.81 / 0.1
D(kg/m3) = 10 / 0.1
D(kg/m3) = 100kg/m3.
- Find Weight:
Given: D(kg/m3) = 500kg/m3, V(m3) = 0.05m3.
Density, D(kg/m3) = W(kg) / 9.81 / V(m3)
W(kg) = D(kg/m3) * 9.81 * V(m3)
W(kg) = 500 * 9.81 * 0.05
W(kg) = 245.25kg.
