Chapter 3, Problem 112E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The density of the metal with the given parameters is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The term density is the mass of the given substance per unit volume. Besides, two variables such as mass (m) and volume (V) can be described as directly proportional one on other by the expression $\mathrm{m}\mathrm{ }\mathrm{\alpha }\mathrm{ }\mathrm{V}$. Notably, the proportionality constant density is having a physical significance. Moreover, the relative thickness of a substance can be measured by its density. The relationship between mass and volume of a substance will give the value of density.
