Question

What is the volume (in cubic inches) of 3.8 lb of titanium?

Answer 1

Given the mass of Titanium = 3.8 lb

Density of Titanium is 4.506 $\frac{g}{cm^{3} }$

We can calculate the volume of Titanium using density and mass.

Converting mass from lb to g:

$3.8lb *\frac{453.6 g}{1 lb} = 1724 g$

Calculating the volume of Titanium using density and mass:

$1724 g * \frac{cm^{3} }{4.506g} =382.6 cm^{3}$

Converting volume from $cm^{3} to in^{3}$:

$382.6 cm^{3} * \frac{ 1 in^{3} }{16.39cm^{3} } = 23.34 in^{3}$
