Question

3. A student has a rectangular block. It is 2 cm wide, 3 cm tall, and 25 cm long. It has a mass of 600 g. First, calculate the volume of the block. Then, use that answer to determine the density of the block.

Answer 1

4 (g cm³)

Explanation:

Volume of a rectangular block (prism) = length X width X height

we have 2 X 3 X 25 = 150 cm³

Formula for density is

density = mass/volume

= 600/150

= 4 (g cm³)
