Answer:
Density of cube = 1.59 × 10-⁴ kg/cm³
Explanation:
From the question, the dimensions of the cube are as follows:
Iength, l =0 .045 m, width, w = 0.45dm, height, h = 4.5 mm.
It's mass is 1.45 X 104 mg. What is this cube's density in Kg/cm?
First, all units of length are converted to cm and mass is converted to Kg.
L = 0.045 m = 0.045 m × 100 cm/m = 4.5 cm;
W = 0.45 dm = 0.45 dm × 10 cm/dm = 4.5 cm
Since it is a cube, the height, h = 4.5 cm not 4.5 mm
Mass of cube = 1.45 × 10⁴ mg = 1.45 × 10⁴ mg × 1 × 10-⁶ kg/mg = 0.0145 kg
Density = mass/volume
Volume of cube = s³ or l × w × h
Volume of cube = 4.5 cm × 4.5 cm × 4.5 cm = 91.125 cm³
Density of cube = 0.0145 kg / 91.125 cm³
Density of cube = 1.59 × 10-⁴ kg/cm³
