wiki Word: density

 

 

Definition: the amount per unit size

 The closer the together the atoms and molecules are in an object the denser it is.  For example a solid is more dense than a liquid because the atoms and molecules are packed tighter together.                                                                                                                                               

density = mass divided by volume  

Think, which would be more dense, a sponge or a rock?    a rock                            
Which is less dense? a baseball or a tennis ball?                a tennis ball

 

       

 

In our Water Bottle Rocket Lab the density of the water effected the amount of thrust produced. The denser the object inside the bottle is the more thrust is produced which propels the rocket higher.
