2. A block of wood 3 cm on each side has a mass of 27 g. What is the density of
the block? (Hint, don't forget to find the volume of the wood.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

1g/cm^3

Explanation:

So a block (It's a block!) of wood is 3cm on each side so it is a cube.

The volume of a cube is given by s^3. So the volume of this block is 3cm x 3cm x3 cm = 27 cm^3.

density = mass/volume =27 g / 27 cm^3 = 1 g/cm^3.

so the answer is 1 g/cm^3.

Density is the measure of the particles per unit volume of the substance. The density of the wood block is [tex]\bold {1\ g/cm^3}[/tex].

Density:

It is the measure of the particles per unit volume of the substance. It is measured in Kg/m^3.

The formula is,

[tex]\bold {Density = \dfrac {mass}{ volume}}[/tex]

Given here,

Mass = 27 g

Volume = [tex]\bold {3^3}[/tex]  = [tex]\bold {27\ cm^3}[/tex]

Thus

[tex]\bold {D = \dfrac {27}{27 } }\\\bold {D = 1 \ g/cm^3}[/tex]

Therefore, the density of the wood block is [tex]\bold {1\ g/cm^3}[/tex].
