The video tutorial explains the concept of density by comparing a kilogram of wood shavings to another object of the same mass. It highlights that while both have the same mass, their volumes differ due to density, which is the mass per unit volume. The tutorial further explains that density is measured in grams per cubic centimeter in the metric system. It concludes by discussing how objects with a density greater than one gram per cubic centimeter sink, while those with less density float.
