Answer: C
Explanation: Density= mass/volume
if dividing by same volume, need to increase mass in order to increase density.
same as 4=8/2 vs 8=16/2
increase numerator= increase in answer
This question involves the concepts of density, mass, and volume.
If the volumes of the two rocks are equal, the rock with the greater density has a "C. greater mass".
The formula of density is given as follows:
[tex]\rho=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]
where,
[tex]\rho[/tex] = density
m = mass
V = volume
Now, we have two objects with different densities such that:
[tex]\rho_1>\rho_2[/tex]
where,
[tex]\rho_1[/tex] = density of the first object
[tex]\rho_2[/tex] = density of the second object
[tex]\frac{m_1}{V_1}>\frac{m_2}{V_2}[/tex]
but, it is given that the volumes of both the objects are same (V₁ = V₂ = V).
Therefore,
[tex]\frac{m_1}{V}>\frac{m_2}{V}\\\\[/tex]
m₁ > m₂
