Question

A lead cylinder has a mass of 540 grams and a density of 2.70g/ml calculate the volume of the cylinder

Answer 1

Answer:

volume = 200 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

A lead cylinder has a mass of 540 grams and a density of 2.70 g/ml . The volume can be calculated below.

Density is said to be the mass of an object divided by the volume of that object. Density measures the degree of compactness of an object. Density is the measure of mass per unit volume.

density = mass/volume

mass = 540 grams

density = 2.70 g/ml

volume = mass/density

volume = 540/2.70

volume = 200 ml

Answer 2

The relation between density , mass and volume is given by :

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

We are given:

Mass= 540 grams

Density = 2.70 g/ml

So plugging the values in the formula to find volume:

$2.70 = \frac{540}{volume}$

$Volume = \frac{540}{2.70}$

Volume =200 liters.

Answer : Volume of the lead cylinder is 200 liters.
