If a block of wood with the length 1.05 m, height 5.24 cm, and width 3.36 cm and a
mass of 2.56 kg what is the density?
density = mass/volume
What units do you want the density?
Since you have mass in kg and length in meters, the volume will be in cubic meters; I presume kg/m^3 is the unit you want.
mass = 2.56 kg.
You need all the units to be the same for length, height, width.
volume = 1.05 m x 0.0524 m x 0.0336 m = ?? m^3.
Just divide mass/volume = ?? density.
Check my work.
the volume, in liters, of 835 g SO3 at STP
To find the density of an object, you need to divide its mass by its volume. In this case, you are given the dimensions of a block of wood and its mass, so you can use these values to calculate the density.
First, you need to convert the dimensions into meters to ensure consistency with the mass unit (kilograms).
The length is given as 1.05 m, the height as 5.24 cm, and the width as 3.36 cm.
To convert the height and width from centimeters to meters, you divide them by 100:
Height = 5.24 cm ÷ 100 = 0.0524 m
Width = 3.36 cm ÷ 100 = 0.0336 m
Now that all the dimensions are in meters, you can calculate the volume of the block. The volume of a rectangular prism can be found by multiplying its length, height, and width:
Volume = Length x Height x Width = 1.05 m x 0.0524 m x 0.0336 m
Next, you can calculate the density by dividing the mass of the block by its volume:
Density = Mass ÷ Volume = 2.56 kg ÷ (1.05 m x 0.0524 m x 0.0336 m)
Now you just need to perform the multiplication and division to find the density.
