Conversions - Linear Density
This site allows you to convert between a wide variety of Density units.
Conversions - Surface Density
This site allows you to convert between a wide variety of Density units.
Density lab, multimedia activities
An applet where you measure the volume and mass of objects and then check if they float. You can alter the liquid's density too. Subscription required but with 30 day free trial.
Conversions - Mass Density
This site allows you to convert between a wide variety of Mass and Density units.
Balloon Race: Floating and Sinking
A nice little demonstration of the concept behind hot air balloons and densities.
Poisson v4.0
Poisson calculates electrostatic potentials by numerically solving Poisson's equation in the presence of spherical and rectangular conductors, charge densities and dielectrics.
Interference or Refraction?
The mathematics of refraction in materials with non-uniform optical densities leading to path differences and interference.
Thermals
A collection of practicals on air pressure and density changes due to heat, including making your own hot air balloon.
