In accordance with the definition of density as r = m/V, in order to determine the density of
matter, the mass and the volume of the sample must be known.
The determination of mass can be performed directly using a weighing instrument.
The determination of volume generally cannot be performed directly. Exceptions to this rule
include
· cases where the accuracy is not required to be very high, and
· measurements performed on geometric bodies, such as cubes, cuboids or cylinders, the volume
of which can easily be determined from dimensions such as length, height and diameter.
· The volume of a liquid can be measured in a graduated cylinder or in a pipette; the volume of
solids can be determined by immersing the sample in a cylinder filled with water and then
measuring the rise in the water level.
Because of the difficulty of determining volume with precision, especially when the sample has a
highly irregular shape, a "detour" is often taken when determining the density, by making use of the
Archimedean Principle, which describes the relation between forces (or masses), volumes and
densities of solid samples immersed in liquid:
From everyday experience, everyone is familiar with the effect that an object or body appears to
be lighter than in air – just like your own body in a swimming pool.

Correct answer choices are :
A) Humus
E) Manure
D) Nitrogen
Explanation:
Soil fertility leads to the capability of a soil to support agricultural plant growth, i.e. to produce plant environment and occur in continued and steady yields of high quality. A fertile soil will include all the important nutrients for basic plant nourishment, as well as other nutrients required in smaller amounts.
Answer:
magnetic force due to gravity
Explanation:
nowno that is because that's what the geography teacher taught us back in don't remember but it's true
Yes because it helps them locate their position and direction
Answer:
.....different temperatures
Explanation:
heat is a form of energy that is transfered from a body of high temperature to a body of low temperature....Cannot happen if the two bodies have the same temperature(thermal equilibrium)
