1. 0.2 g/mL
The relationship between mass, density and volume of an object is
where
d is the density
m is the mass
V is the volume
For the object in this problem, we have
m = 10 g
V = 50 mL
Substituting into the equation,
2. 10 mL
In this exercise we know:
- The density of the object: d = 2 g/mL
- The mass of the object: m = 20 g
Therefore, we can re-arrange the previous equation to find the volume:
And substituting values into the equation, we find
In order to solve this problem, there are two equations that you need to know to solve this problem and pretty much all of kinematics. The first is that d=0.5at^2 (d=vertical distance, a=acceleration due to gravity and t=time). The second is vf-vi=at (vf=final velocity, vi=initial velocity, a=acceleration due to gravity, t=time). So to find the time that the ball traveled, isolate the t-variable from the d=0.5at^2. Isolate the t and the equation now becomes 
. Solving the equation where d=8 and a=9.8 makes the time 
=1.355 seconds. With the second equation, the vi=0 m/s, the vf is unknown, a=9.8 m/s^2 and t=1.355 sec. Substitute all these values into the equation vf-vi=at, this makes it vf-0=9.8(1.355). This means that the vf=13.28 m/s.
