A solid is cooled to a very low temperature. Assuming the mass remains constant, how, (if at all), does this affect the density

of the solid?

Most solid substances (all of them that I can think of)
contract (shrink) when they get cold.

         Density  =  (mass) / (volume)

If mass doesn't change but volume gets smaller,
then density increases.

Answer: When the solids reduce their temperature, usually happens a volume contraction, it means that the volume of the solid decreases.

Now, the density of something is defined as : D = \frac{mass}{volume}.

Then if the mass remains constant, and the volume gets smaller, the density of the solid gets bigger.

Increasing the mass attached to a spring will increase its vibrational period.
iren2701 [21]
Increasing the mass attached to a spring will increase it's vibrational period - this is true. Imagine placing an elephant at the end of a bungee cord vs an apple, the apple will recoil faster than the elephant.

At what distance above the surface of the earth is the gravitational field 4.9 m/s^2
san4es73 [151]

That's 1/2 of what it is on the surface.

The distance between the center of the Earth and any object
on the surface is 1 Earth radius ... about 3960 miles.

Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between the centers of the objects, so in order
to reduce the acceleration of gravity by 1/2, you increase the
distance by √2 .

           (3960 miles) x (√2) = 5,600 miles from the center

                                         = 1,640 miles above the surface.
