Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall density formula

Density $\rho=\frac{m}{V}$, where $m$ is mass and $V$ is volume.

Step2: Calculate densities for given mass - volume pairs

For the first set of values (Mass = 100g, Volume = 50$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_1=\frac{100g}{50cm^{3}} = 2g/cm^{3}$

For the second set of values (Mass = 150g, Volume = 75$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_2=\frac{150g}{75cm^{3}} = 2g/cm^{3}$

For the third set of values (Mass = 230g, Volume = 100$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_3=\frac{230g}{100cm^{3}} = 2.3g/cm^{3}$

For the fourth set of values (Mass = 376g, Volume = 98$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_4=\frac{376g}{98cm^{3}}\approx3.84g/cm^{3}$

For the fifth set of values (Mass = 6750g, Volume = 237$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_5=\frac{6750g}{237cm^{3}}\approx28.48g/cm^{3}$

For the sixth set of values (Mass = 950g, Volume = 375$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_6=\frac{950g}{375cm^{3}}\approx2.53g/cm^{3}$

For the seventh set of values (Mass = 500g, Volume = 500$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_7=\frac{500g}{500cm^{3}} = 1g/cm^{3}$

For the eighth set of values (Mass = 1876g, Volume = 475$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_8=\frac{1876g}{475cm^{3}}\approx3.95g/cm^{3}$

For the ninth set of values (Mass = 872g, Volume = 546$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_9=\frac{872g}{546cm^{3}}\approx1.60g/cm^{3}$

For the tenth set of values (Mass = 886g, Volume = 947$cm^{3}$)

$\rho_{10}=\frac{886g}{947cm^{3}}\approx0.94g/cm^{3}$

For the balance - related questions:

  1. Since the balance is in equilibrium, the mass of the lead and the mass of the feathers are equal.
  2. Feathers are less dense and will occupy a much larger volume than the lead for the same mass. So, the feathers have a greater volume.
  3. Lead is a dense material compared to feathers. So, the lead has a greater density.

Answer:

  1. $2g/cm^{3}$
  2. $2g/cm^{3}$
  3. $2.3g/cm^{3}$
  4. $\approx3.84g/cm^{3}$
  5. $\approx28.48g/cm^{3}$
  6. $\approx2.53g/cm^{3}$
  7. $1g/cm^{3}$
  8. $\approx3.95g/cm^{3}$
  9. $\approx1.60g/cm^{3}$
  10. $\approx0.94g/cm^{3}$ For balance questions:
  11. They have equal mass.
  12. Feathers have greater volume.
  13. Lead has greater density.
