Question

The rectangular solid has a mass of 3,300 grams.

30cm - height
10cm - length
50cm - width

What is the density of the substance?

0.22 g/cm3
4.5 g/cm3
36.7 g/cm3
2.2 g/cm3

Answer 1

50x10x30 = 15000 cm^3

3300/15000 =

0.22 g/cm^3

Answer 2

Answer:
`0.22\text{ g/cm}^3`

Explanation:

Given : The rectangular solid has a mass of 3,300 grams.

Dimensions of solid :

30cm - height

10cm - length

50cm - width

Then , the volume of solid is given by :-

`\text{Volume}=\text{length * width * height}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Volume}=30*10*50=15000\text{ cm}^3`

Formula for density :
`\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Density}=(3300)/(15000)=0.22\text{ g/cm}^3`

Hence, the density of the substance =
`0.22\text{ g/cm}^3`
