You have three objects of varying shapes and sizes: Object 1 is a rectangular block of tin. Object 2 is a cube of aluminum. Object 3 is a sphere of copper.
a. the density of tin is 5.75g/cm2. What is the mass of object 1 in kg if the rectangular block has a volume of 1.34L?
b. what is the volume in cubic inches of object 2 if the cube of aluminum 7.58 inches on a side?
c. what is the mass in kg of object 2? the density of aluminum is 2.70g/cm3
d. what is the volume in cm3 of object 3 if the sphere of copper has a diameter 8.62cm? the volume of the sphere is 4 {pi}^3/3
e. what is the mass in kg of object 3? Copper has a density of 8.96g/cm3

Answer: a. m = 7.7 kg

              b. V = 435.52 in³

              c. m = 1927 kg

              d. V = 335.37 cm³

              e. m = 3 kg

Explanation: Density is the ratio of mass per volume, i.e., it's the measure of an object's compactness. Its representation is the greek letter ρ.

The formula for density is

[tex]\rho=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]

Density's unit in SI is kg/m³, but it can assume lots of other units.

Some unit transformations necessary for the resolution of the question:

1 L = 1 dm³ = 1000 cm³

1 in³ = 16.3871 cm³

1 g = 0.001 kg

a. V = 1.34 L = 1340 cm³

[tex]\rho=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]

[tex]m=\rho.V[/tex]

m = 5.75 * 1340

m = 7705 g => 7.705 kg

Mass of object 1 with volume 1.34L is 7.7 kg.

b. A cube's volume is calculated as V = side³

V = 7.58³

V = 435.52 in³

Volume of object 2 is 435.52 in³.

c. Using 1 in³ = 16.3871 cm³ to change units:

V = 435.52 * 16.3871

V = 713689.4 cm³

Then, mass will be

[tex]m=\rho.V[/tex]

m = 2.7 * 713689.4

m = 1926961.4 g => 1927 kg

Mass of object 2 is 1927 kg.

d. Volume of a sphere is calculated as [tex]V=\frac{4}{3}.\pi.r^{3}[/tex]

Diameter is twice the radius, then r = 4.31 cm.

Volume is

[tex]V=\frac{4}{3}.\pi.(4.31)^{3}[/tex]

V = 335.37 cm³

Volume of object 3 is 335.37 cm³.

e. [tex]m=\rho.V[/tex]

m = 8.96 * 335.37

m = 3004.91 g => 3 kg

Mass of object 3 is 3 kg.
