2. Density is a physical property that
measures the Mass per unit Volume
Density
3. Less Dense and More Dense:
More Dense Less Dense
A Cow has a large
density
This means that it has
more mass
More Dense means thee
is more matte in an
object
A rabbit has a small density
This means that it has less
mass
less dense means there is
less matter in an object
4. To do Density Problems
