An object has density rho. a. Suppose each of the object's three dimensions is increased by a factor of 2 without changing the material of which the object is made. Will the density change? If so, by what factor? Explain.
b. Suppose each of the object's three dimensions is increased by a factor of 2 without changing the object's mass. Will the density change? If so, by what factor? Explain.

a. the density will not change

b. D' = 0.125 D

So, the density will change by a factor of 0.125

Explanation:

a.

Density is the material property and the value of density is constant for all solid materials. So, when the dimensions of the a solid are increased, while the material is same, then the material must be added to the object for increasing its dimensions. So, with the increase in the volume, the mass of the object also increases. And as a result the density of the object remains constant.

Since, here the material remains the same.

Therefore, the density will not change

b.

Density = mass/Volume

D = m/V   equation (1)

Now,

V = LWH   equation (2)

Now, if each dimension increases by a factor of 2, the volume becomes:

V' = (2L)(2W)(2H)

V' = 8 LWH

using equation (2)

V' = 8 V

So, for constant mass, density becomes:

D' = m/V'

D' = m/8V

using equation (1)

D' = D/8

D' = 0.125 D

So, the density will change by a factor of 0.125

from 1609, galileo galilei used the recently invented telescope to observe the sun, moon and planets. he saw the mountains and craters of the moon, and for the first time revealed the planets to be worlds in their own right. galileo also provided strong observational evidence that planets orbited the sun.

his discoveries about the moon, jupiter's moons, venus, and sunspots supported the idea that the sun - not the earth - was the center of the universe, as was commonly believed at the time.galileo turned his gaze toward venus, the brightest celestial object in the sky - other than the sun and the moon.
