A physical quantity is something which can be measured and whose measurement is necessary because all the laws of physics are given in terms of these physical quantities. The examples of physical quantity are mass, length, time, temperature, electric current, velocity , acceleration, force, work, weight,power, energy etc.
There are some quantities which cannot be measured and hence are not classified as physical quantities , for example, love, honesty, hatred etc
Thus a physical quantity is a quantity which can be measured.
The density of sample is 5 g/cm3
Given:
volume of sample = 20 cm3
mass of sample = 100 grams
To Find:
density of sample
Solution: Density is the measure of how much “stuff” is in a given amount of space. For example, a block of the heavier element lead (Pb) will be denser than the softer, lighter element gold (Au). A block of Styrofoam is less dense than a brick. It is defined as mass per unit volume
density = mass/volume
d = 100/20
d = 5 g/cm3
So, density of sample is 5 g/cm3
