Question
Calculate the mass of a body whose volume is 2m3 and relative density is 0.52.
Advertisements
Solution
Relative density of body = 0.52
Density of water at 4oC = 1000 Kgm-3.
Density of body = 0.52 X 1000 Kgm-3= 520 Kgm-3
We know density = mass X volume.
Mass = density X volume
Mass = 520 X 2 =1040 Kg.
Mass of given body is 1040 Kg.
