Explanation Introduction: Different types of materials are used by engineers for the designing of products. There are different materials for various design and application needs. For example ceramic may be chosen if the primary need is to withstand a very high temperature over a long period of time. When there is a need for more than one property to be possessed such as strength and weight reduction, then engineers use composite materials. Such materials are designed by mixing more than one material and the desired material is produced. The highest density is of the metal like Tungsten. The density of Tungsten is approximately 19.6 g / cm 3
