Round your answer to the ones place.arrow_forwardCalculating Volume Suppose you want to know the volume of a rectangular object, like one of the suitcases shown in Figure 3. First, measure the length, width, and height (or thickness) of the suitcase. Then multiply the measurements together. Volume = Length x Width X Height When you multiply the three measurements, you must also multiply the units.

Use this information to calculate the density of gold in g/mL. (Note: 1 cm3 = 1 mL) ans: 19.299g/ml To determine the density of sand, you put a graduated cylinder on an electronic scale and zero it. Then, you pour 7.50 mL of sand into the graduated cylinder. The scale reads 9.800 g. What is the density of the sand? 1.307g/ml Assume the volume of the statue in the movie is 1.000 L. Use the density of gold to calculate the mass (in kg) of the statue. 19.299kg In the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Indiana Jones replaces the golden statue with a bag of sand. Dr. Jones had to do some quick mental calculations to avoid springing a trap. As you complete this activity (using dimensional analysis and showing all work) you will decide if what you saw paralleled reality.
