- What pattern do you see in your graph? Explain how to tell from your graph whether an object will sink or float.
- On your graph, plot the data point for a mystery object with a mass of 50 g and a volume of 80 cc. Draw the line through this point and the point M = 0, V = 0, representing the mass vs. volume line for this material. (Label it “Question 19.”)
- Based on the pattern you observed in your graph, would you expect the object to sink or float in water? Explain.
- Find the object's density. Based on its density, would you expect the object to sink or float in water? Explain.
- Explain how to use the mass and volume data table to compare densities.
- Explain how to use the graph to compare densities.
- An object has a density of
or 4 g/cc. - If its volume is 80 cc, what is its mass? Show your work.
- If its mass is 100 g, what is its volume? Show your work.
- The final product from a steel mill should not have air pockets trapped inside. You are given a piece of steel with a volume of 20 cc. Explain how you would go about determining whether the piece was solid steel or had air trapped inside.
- Two rocks are thought to be made of the same material. Explain how you could investigate whether this is true.
