Answer:

Density = 10,933.93 kg/m^3

the density of the material is 10,933.93 kg/m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is the mass per unit volume

Density = mass/volume = m/V

Volume of a cylinder V = πr^2 h

Given;

Height h = 48.5mm = 0.0485 m

Radius r = diameter/2 = 49mm÷2 = 24.5mm = 0.0245m

Substituting the values;

Volume V = π×(0.0245^2)×0.0485

V = 0.000091458438030 m^3

V = 0.000091458 m^3

The mass is given as;

Mass = 1 kg

So, the density can be calculated as;

Density = 1/0.000091458

Density = 10933.92825785 kg/m^3

Density = 10,933.93 kg/m^3

the density of the material is 10,933.93 kg/m^3
