If you tried to smuggle gold bricks by filling your backpack, whose dimensions are 66 cm 18 cm 15 cm, what would its mass be
Assume your backpack volume is 66*18*15 cm^3. Multiply that by the density (or specific gravity) of gold, which is 19.3 g/cm^3. The answer will be in grams. Convert that to kg or lb if you wish.

To calculate the mass of the gold bricks, we would need to know the density of gold. The density of gold is approximately 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or 19,300 kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).
Given the dimensions of your backpack (66 cm x 18 cm x 15 cm), we can calculate its volume as follows:
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 66 cm x 18 cm x 15 cm
To ensure consistency in units, let's convert the dimensions to meters:
Volume = 0.66 m x 0.18 m x 0.15 m
Now, we can calculate the volume in cubic meters:
Volume = 0.01782 m³
To find the mass, we can multiply the volume by the density:
Mass = Volume x Density
Mass = 0.01782 m³ x 19,300 kg/m³
The resulting mass will be in kilograms.
