density = mass / volume
therefore, density = 22/42 = 0.524 kg/m3

Answer:
0.52kgm^(-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.


Density=(mass)/(volume)

We are given : Mass of an object = 22 kg

Volume of an object =
42m^3

Putting in the values in the formula for density:


Density=(22kg)/(42m^3)=0.52kgm^(-3)

Thus the mass has density of
0.52kgm^(-3) in S.I units.
