Enter the mass of compound 1 (kg), the mass of compound 2 (kg), and the total volume of composite (m^3) into the Composite Density Calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the Composite Density.
Composite Density Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Composite Density.
CD = (m1+m2) / V
- Where CD is the Composite Density (kg/m^3)
- m1 is the mass of compound 1 (kg)
- m2 is the mass of compound 2 (kg)
- V is the total volume of composite (m^3)
How to Calculate Composite Density?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Composite Density.
Example Problem #1
- First, determine the mass of compound 1 (kg).
- The mass of compound 1 (kg) is given as 5.
- Next, determine the mass of compound 2 (kg).
- The mass of compound 2 (kg) is calculated as: 10.
- Next, determine the total volume of composite (m^3).
- The total volume of composite (m^3) is found to be: 2.
- Finally, calculate the Composite Density using the formula above:
CD = (m1+m2) / V
Inserting the values from above yields:
CD = (5+10) / 2 = 7.5 (kg/m^3)
Example Problem #2
The variables needed for this problem are provided below:
mass of compound 1 (kg) = 5
mass of compound 2 (kg) = 93
total volume of composite (m^3) = 10
This example problem is a test of your knowledge on the subject. Use the calculator above to check your answer.
CD = (m1+m2) / V = (kg/m^3)
