Explanation Given data: Density of the stone is 3.00 tonne m 3 . Mass of the stone is 1.50 tonnes . Formula used: Write the expression of density. ρ = m V Here, V is the volume and m is the mass. Write the relation between diameter and radius: D = 2 r Here, D and r are diameter and radius of spherical specimen respectively. Write the volume V of sphere is given by: V = 4 3 π r 3 Explanation: Recall the expression of density. ρ = m V Substitute 3.00 tonne m 3 for ρ and 1.50 tonnes for m . 3.00 tonne m 3 = 1.50 tonnes V V = 1.50 tonnes 3.00 tonne m 3 V = 5 × 10 − 1 m 3 Convert m 3 to cm 3 . 5 × 10 − 1 m 3 = 5 × 10 − 1 m 3 ( 10 6 cm 3 1 m 3 ) = 5 × 10 5 cm 3 Recall the relation between diameter and radius: D = 2 r r = D 2 Recall the volume of sphere
