In order to find the density of an object, Maria is trying to measure its volume. However, the object does not fit in the tool she is using. To solve this problem, Maria decides to break apart the object.
Will Maria be able to find density following this method? Why or why not?
O Yes, if she measures the volume and mass of all the pieces of the object, she should be able to calculate density
O Yes, if she measures the volume and mass of one of the pieces of the object, she should be able to calculate
density.
O No, once the object is broken apart and the shape has been altered, it is not possible to calculate the volume of
the whole object to find density.
O No, once the object is broken apart and the shape has been altered, it is not possible to calculate the mass of the
object to find density.
