Question

the figure below represents a wooden block whose dimensions are 2m by 0.2m by 0.2m.calculate the volume of the block and the mass of the block if it's density is 600kg/m3​

Answer 1

Answer:

$0.08 m^3$, 48 kg

Explanation:

The density of an object is the amount of mass contained per unit of volume.

Density is given by the equation

$d=\frac{m}{V}$

where

m is the mass of the object

V is its volume

In this problem, we have a wooden block of dimensions:

2 m, 0.2 m, 0.2 m

So, the volume of the block is

$V=(2)(0.2)(0.2)=0.08 m^3$

We also know that the density of the block is

$d=600 kg/m^3$

Therefore, the mass of the block is

$m=dV=(600)(0.08)=48 kg$
