| contents | In this paper, we have proposed a simple method of measuring the density of a solid material. We have utilized the pressure sensor of a smartphone as a pressure-measuring device. By measuring the values of pressure when a solid object is in air and also in the fully immersed condition in a non-reactive liquid, we have determined the density of the object. |
