Chapter 1, Problem 49R

To determine

To Find:Density of an object.

Answer to Problem 49R

  $\text{5}\text{.67}{\text{g/cm}}^{\text{3}}$

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Mass of the object is $\text{17}\text{g}$

Volume of the object is $\text{3}{\text{cm}}^3$

Formula:

Density of an object is given by

  $\text{Density}\text{=}\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$   ...... (1)

Calculation:

Substitute $\text{17}\text{g}$ for mass and $\text{3}{\text{cm}}^3$ for volume in equation (1)

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{Density}\text{=}\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}\\ =\frac{\text{17}\text{g}}{\text{3}{\text{cm}}^{\text{3}}}\\ \text{=}\text{5}\text{.67}{\text{g/cm}}^{\text{3}}\end{array}$

Conclusion:

Hence, the required answer is $\text{5}\text{.67}{\text{g/cm}}^{\text{3}}$ .
