Answer:
30.6 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the parallelogram is simply the sum of the areas of the component three shapes - the square and the two triangles.
Area of square = 4.5 cm × 4.5 cm = 20.25 cm²
Area of two triangles = 2 ×(1/2) × 2.3 cm × 4.5 cm = 10.35 cm²
Area of parallelogram = 20.25 cm² + 10.35 cm² = 30.6 cm²
2x3=6
3x2=6
6 divided by 2=3
6 divided by 3=2
The displaced volume of the water, because of the submersion of the object, is equal to the volume of the object.
So to find the volume of the object we calculate the difference in volume of water:
33.1-25.1 = 8 ml
Since 1 mL of water has the volume of 1cm^3, then the volume of the object is 8 cm^3.
The density of the object is found by the formula:
density= mass/volume= (3 g) / (8 cm^3) = 3/8 (g/cm^3)= 0.375 g/cm^3
Answer: 0.375 g/cm^3
