If a black ball is denser than a white ball of the same size, what does the black ball have??

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: The black ball will have more mass than the white ball.

Explanation: Density of a substance is defined as the ratio of mass and volume occupied by the substance.

Mathematically,

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

We are given that the two balls are of same size, which means that the volume of both the balls are same. We are also given that the black ball is more dense than the white ball, which means that the black ball will have more mass.

As, $Density\propto Mass$
