Question

What is the volume (in cubic inches) of 3.8 lb of titanium?

Answer 1

Given the mass of Titanium = 3.8 lb

Density of Titanium is 4.506
`(g)/(cm^(3) )`

We can calculate the volume of Titanium using density and mass.

Converting mass from lb to g:

`3.8lb *(453.6 g)/(1 lb) = 1724 g`

Calculating the volume of Titanium using density and mass:

`1724 g * (cm^(3) )/(4.506g) =382.6 cm^(3)`

Converting volume from
`cm^(3) to in^(3)`:

`382.6 cm^(3) * ( 1 in^(3) )/(16.39cm^(3) ) = 23.34 in^(3)`
