Question

12.A piece of magnesium is in the shape of a cylinder with a height of 5.62 cm

Answer 1

Answer:

Density, d = 1.779 g/cm³

Explanation:

The density of a material is given by its mass per unit volume.

Here, height of a piece of magnesium cylinder, h = 5.62 cm

Its diameter, d = 1.34 cm

Radius = 0.67 cm

Volume of he cylinder,

$V=\pi r^2 h\\\\\text{Putting the value of r and h, we get :}\\\\V=(\pi \times (0.67)^2\times 5.62)\ cm^3$

$d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\d=\dfrac{14.1\ g}{(\pi \times (0.67)^2\times 5.62)\ cm^3}\\\\d=1.779\ g/cm^3$

So, the density of the sample is 1.779 g/cm³.
