Variables

Relative Density

Relative density is density of an object in terms of the density of another reference object.

Symbol: RD

Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

Formulas to find Relative Density

Density

Density of a material shows the denseness of that material in a specific given area. This is taken as mass per unit volume of a given object.

Symbol: ρ

Measurement: DensityUnit: kg/m³

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

Formulas to find Density

Density of Water

Density of Water is the weight of the water per its unit volume, which depends on the temperature.

Symbol: ρ_w

Measurement: DensityUnit: kg/m³

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

How to Evaluate Relative Density of Fluid?

Relative Density of Fluid evaluator uses Relative Density = Density/Density of Water to evaluate the Relative Density, The Relative Density of Fluid formula is defined as the ratio of density of substance to the density of water. It is a dimensionless quantity because it is the ratio of two similar quantity which have the same units. Buoyancy (the ability of an object to float in water or air) is intimately related to specific gravity. If a substance has specific gravity less than that of a fluid: it will float on that fluid, If a substance has specific gravity greater than that of a fluid: it will sink in that fluid. Relative Density is denoted by RD symbol.

How to evaluate Relative Density of Fluid using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Relative Density of Fluid, enter Density (ρ) & Density of Water (ρ_w) and hit the calculate button.
