Density and Specific Gravity
Density conversion is essential for materials science, fluid mechanics, and quality control. Relates mass, volume, and material properties.
Density Basics
Density = mass/volume. SI unit: kg/m³. Common units: g/cm³, lb/ft³. Water = 1000 kg/m³ = 1 g/cm³ at standard conditions.
Material Properties
Density determines buoyancy, structural load calculations, and material identification. Critical for engineering design and manufacturing.
Specific Gravity
Ratio of material density to water density. Dimensionless number. SG > 1 sinks in water, SG < 1 floats.
Common Applications
Materials testing, quality control, fluid mechanics, petroleum industry, chemical processing, and geological surveys.
Conversion Tips
Water density ≈ 1 g/cm³. Aluminum ≈ 2.7 g/cm³. Steel ≈ 7.8 g/cm³. Lead ≈ 11.3 g/cm³. Density varies with temperature.
