What Rearrangement of ρ = m/V means in Physics A-Level, as defined for OCR.
Definition of Rearrangement of ρ = m/V
Check what you remember
Read the wording for your board, then hide it and explain Rearrangement of ρ = m/V in your own words. Rough notes are fine. This is a self-check, with no mark or grade.
Reference: OCR
The equation can be rearranged to m = ρV and V = m/ρ to find mass or volume.
