KengaRu [80]

Answer: Total volume of fat in his body is 0.015m^3

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

Given:

Density of fat cells = 900kgm^{-3}

mass of fat cells = 20% of the mass of a 70 kg student's body is fat= \frac{20}{100}\times 70=14kg

Volume of fat = ?

Putting in the values we get:

900kgm^{-3}=\frac{14kg}{volume}

Volume=0.015m^3

Thus total volume of fat in his body is 0.015m^3
