Explanation
Density is a physical property of matter that refers to the mass of an object per unit volume. It is usually expressed in units such as kilograms per cubic meter (
m3kg
) or grams per cubic centimetre (
cm3g
).
The density of an object can be calculated by dividing its mass by its volume.
D=Vm(m3kg)
Where:D=density(m3kg)m=mass(kg)V=volume(m3)
The different densities for dry and seasoned woods allow for calculating their masses.
