This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Apparent Specific Gravity - Apparent Specific Gravity is used in various industries, particularly in the study of materials and fluids to understand their buoyancy and density relative to water.
Dry Mass - (Measured in Kilogram) - Dry mass refers to the weight of an object or substance after the removal of all moisture or liquid content.
Net Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Net volume is the total space or capacity remaining after subtracting the excluded or non-usable volume within a given container or system.
Density - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density is a measure of mass per unit volume and represents the compactness or mass concentration of a substance within a given space.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Dry Mass: 2 Kilogram --> 2 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Net Volume: 0.0008 Cubic Meter --> 0.0008 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Density: 1000 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1000 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

G_app = (M_D/V_N)/W --> (2/0.0008)/1000

Evaluating ... ...

G_app = 2.5

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

2.5 --> No Conversion Required
