Question

A square block made of a very strong metal has a mass of 0.56375 kilograms. The length of each side block is 5 .0 cm. A) caculate the volume of the block in cm3. B) calculate the density of the block ing /ml.

Answer 1

A) The volume of the block is 125 cm³.

`V = l^(3) = (\text{5.0 cm})^(3) = 125 \text{ cm}^(3)\\`

B) The density of the block is 4.5 g/cm³.

`\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} = \frac{\text{563.75 g}}{125 \text{ cm}^(3)} = \text{4.5 g/cm}^(3)\\`
