The density of a LEGO block can vary depending on the type and size of the block. On average, the density of a LEGO block is around 0.9 grams per cubic centimeter.
The density of the block of wood is 0.6 g/cm^3. (Density = mass/volume)
If a solid block of material is cut in half, its density remains the same. Density is a physical property of a substance and is independent of the shape or size of the object. Therefore, cutting the block in half would not change its density.
To determine the density of a block, you can use a balance to measure its mass and a ruler to measure its dimensions. The density of the block can then be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.
If a block of the substance floats in water, it means that the density of the substance is less than the density of water. Since objects with lower density than water float in water, we can infer that the substance is less dense than water.
It depends on the density of the block and the water. If the block's overall density is greater than the water, it will sink. However, if the block is less dense than water, it will float, regardless of the holes.
