 Does the result of measuring the density of
a cube have the same results of indirectly
one? explain your answer

It is because, measuring density of a cube is not acurate since

we made mistake like by adding a little bit of water or put a
little bit of water some of them from human error.

Why do you think the volume measurment

of a stone only have a direct result explain!

It is because its hard to measure the volume of the stone

directly because each stone has very different shapes and are
not fixed shape
 Conclusion
Our data from
measuring isn't 100%
accurate some of
them are made from
error


Conclusion
It's most likely
inaccurate because we
saw the measurements
wrong or did some
steps incorrectly
 Take a glass of water and a glass of cooking
oil with the same size of glass! Are they
having the same mass? why do you think so?

No they have different mass, normally if oil and water is

put together oil is at the top while water is at the
bottom. The reason that happens is beacuse the density
of oil is less then the density of water. The molecules
that make up the oil are larger then those who that
made up water, so they cannot pack as tight as water
