Question

The mass of the Moon is 7.347 x 1022 kg,

and its average radius is 1,737.5 km.
What is the average density of the Moon
in grams per cubic centimeter?
PMoon [?] g/cm³

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

mass = 7.347 x 10^22 kg = 7.347 x 1025 g

radius = 1,737.5 km = 1737.5 x 10^5 cm

Volume of sphere ( the moon ) = 4/3 pi r^3

Density = mass / volume

= 7.347 x 10^25 g / ( 4/3 pi *(1737.5 x 10^5 cm)^3)) =

3.34 g/ cm^3
