Answer:

118kg

Step-by-step explanation:

answered

Given

density of the cube= 8050 kg/m3 .

length of the sizes of the cube=24.5 cm

We can convert the length to cm for unit consistency.

It's length =24.5 cm =0.245m

✓ the length of sizes of the cube is the same, then the volume can be calculated as

Volume= L^3

= (0.245m)^3

=0.01470625 m^3

✓ but we know that

Density = mass/ volume

Then,

Mass= (Volume × density)

= (0.01470625)(8050)

= 118 kg

Hence, the mass of the cube is 118 kg
