Question

1. calculate: density is the amount of mass contained in a given volume. to find the density of an object, divide its mass by its volume. density is recorded in units of grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³). what is the density of an object with a mass of 100 g and a volume of 50 cm³?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall density formula

The formula for density ($
ho$) is $
ho = \frac{m}{V}$, where $m$ is mass and $V$ is volume.

Step2: Substitute values

Given $m = 100\ g$ and $V = 50\ cm^3$, substitute into the formula: $
ho = \frac{100}{50}$.

Step3: Calculate the result

$\frac{100}{50} = 2$.

Answer:

The density of the object is $2\ g/cm^3$.
