Arrange the following building materials in the increasing order of density of materials. Granite, Steel, River sand, Water
Arrange the following building materials in the increasing order of density of materials.
Granite, Steel, River sand, Water
Right Answer is:
Water, River sand, Granite, Steel
SOLUTION
Density of water = 9.81 kN/m3 or 1000 kg/m3 (SG = 1)
Density of steel = 7850 kg/m3 (SG = 7.85)
Density of sand = Approx. 18 kN/m3 (SG = 1.84)
Density of granite, SG = 2.7
