Given
The dimensions of the block is given as
Length = 16 in
Width = 8 in
Height = 6 in
The mass of the block is 12150 g.
Explanation
To determine the block's density, use the formula for density.
Density is mass per unit volume.
[tex]D=\frac{m}{V}[/tex]
The volume of the block is
[tex]16\times6\times8=768in^3[/tex]
Convert into cubic cm , it is given 1 inch =2.5 cm.
[tex]768in^3=768\times2.5^3=12,000\text{ cm}^3[/tex]
Substitute the values in the density formula.
[tex]D=\frac{12150}{12000}=1.0125\frac{g}{cm^3}[/tex]
AnswerHence the block's density is 1.0125 g/cubic cm.
