Density of Solids

The density of a substance refers to how much matter is present in a given amount of space. It is expressed as the ratio of the mass of the substance to its volume.

(The large number obtained is an overestimate, but it is still reasonable.)
Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals.

(a) What mass of water is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?
Archimedes' principle can be used to calculate the density of a fluid as well as that of a solid.
