How does adding more of a substance affect it's density?

I’m going to use molasses as an example of a substance.

The mass and volume both change when changing the amount of molasses.
However, the density does not change. This is because the mass and volume increase at the same rate/proportion!

Even though there is more molasses (mass) in test tube A, the molasses also takes up more space (volume). Therefore, the spacing between those tiny particles that make up the molasses is constant (does not change).

The size or amount of a material/substance does not affect its density.

Adding more of a substance has no effect on its density.  The formula for density is:

Density = (mass) divided by (volume).

If you doubled the volume of your sample of the substance, then you also doubled the mass of the sample.  So when you divide (mass) by (volume), you still get the same number.  The density doesn't change.

Suppose you are standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Will the scale read your weight as larger for sm
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

When I stand at such a scale in an elevated that's already rising upwards, its scale would appear to also be 0 because of free fall and would often reveal that weight whenever the lift is stable.  

In this, the free fall is also known as the object, that is influenced exclusively by gravity, and an object operating only through the influence of gravity is said to be in a free-fall state.

Two out-of-tune flutes play the same note. One produces a tone that has a frequency of 248 Hz, while the other produces 288 Hz.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

F = 268 Hz

Explanation:

The beat frequency is given as:

Beat Frequency = |Frequency 1 - Frequency 2|\\|

So, for the first flute and tuning fork:

20 Hz = |248 Hz - F|

where,

F = Frequency of tuning fork

F = 248 Hz ± 20 Hz

F = 268 Hz (OR) 228 Hz

Now, for the second flute and tuning fork:

20 Hz = |288 Hz - F|

where,

F = Frequency of tuning fork

F = 288 Hz ± 20 Hz

F = 268 Hz (OR) 308 Hz

Since, 268 Hz is common from both calculations. Therefore, it will be the frequency of the tuning fork.

<u>F = 268 Hz</u>
