Question

A solid cylinder has a radius of 2 cm and a height of 7 cm. It has a density of 3.1 grams

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to do is find the volume.

r = 2cm

h = 7 cm

pi = 3.14

V = pi*r^2 *h

V = 3.14 * 2^2 * 7

V = 3.14 * 4 * 7

V = 87.92 cm^3

Next find the mass using the density formula

Density = mass / volume

Density = 3.1 grams / cm^3

Volume = 87.92 cm^3

3.1 = m / 87.92               Multiply both sides by 87.92

3.1 * 87.92 = m

m = 272.55

Note:

Technically There should be no decimal places. 3.1 is only 2 significant digits. The answer should be 270 grams.
