The density of the coin, given the data from the question is 21.33 g/mL.

<h3>What is density? </h3>

The density of a substance is simply defined as the mass of the subtance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, it can be expressed as

Density = mass / volume

<h3>How to determine the density of the coin</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Volume of coin = 2.25 L = 2.25 × 1000 = 2250 mL
  • Mass of coin = 48 Kg = 48 × 1000 = 48000 g
  • Density of coin =?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 48000 / 2250

Density = 21.33 g/mL

<h3>How to determine the metal</h3>

The density of the coin obtained, given the data from the question is 21.33 g/mL

Considering the options given, the density of the metal is not specified.

Explain how muscles and bones work together to help bend the arm
vitfil [10]

Answer:

By contracting, muscles pull on bones and allow the body to move. ... For example, the biceps and triceps muscles work together to allow you to bend and straighten your elbow. When you want to bend your elbow, your biceps muscle contracts (Figure below), and, at the same time, the triceps muscle relaxes.

Why do the densities of most substances increase when temperature decreases?
vlada-n [284]

This is because temperatures determine the kinetic energy of molecules of a substance, At lower temperatures the molecules have low kinetic energy hence the distance between molecules is not as large as when the kinetic energy is higher (because the molecules bombard less and with less kinetic energy). This means the substance can pack more molecules per volume at lower temperatures. The more the molecules per volume the higher the density.
