Chapter 1, Problem 110AP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass of a bronze cylinder is to be calculated and assumptions made in this calculation are to be listed.

Concept introduction:

Density of a substance is the ratio of mass of a substance to volume of that substance. The expression for density of a substance is as follows:

$\rho =\frac{m}{V}$

Here, $m$ is the mass of the object, $\rho$ is the density, and $V$ is the volume of the substance.

The expression for volume of a cylinder is as follows:

$V=\text{π}{r}^{\text{2}}h$

Here, $V$ is volume, $r$ is radius, and $h$ is height of cylinder.
