Solid and liquids are much more denser than gas because their molecules are close to each other and with that the molecules of them can't move that freely unlike the gas molecules. Also, because of being near to each other the molecules of solid and liquids became heavy making them dense.
To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second law, the definition of density and the geometric relationships that allow us to find the volume of the figures presented.
For the particular case of the Cube with equal sides its volume is determined by


In the case of perforated material we have that its volume is given according to the cylindrical geometry, that is to say



In this way the net volume would be



We need to find the mass, but we have the Weight and Gravity so from Newton's second Law




PART A) From the relation of density as a unit of mass and volume we have to



PART B) To find the weight of the cube then we apply the ratio of




Answer:
T²= 4π²R³/GM
Explanation:
First we know that
Fg= Fc
Because centripetal force must equal gravitational force
So
GMm/R² = Mv²/R
But velocity is 2πR/T
So by substitution we have
GMm/R²= M (2πR/T)/T
We have
T²= 4π²R³/GM as period
