First, express the volume in the same units (cm3 or m3)
I will convert the meters to centimeters
(.1 m)(100 cm/m) = 10 cm
and
(50m)(100 cm/m) = 5000 cm
Call the volume of the block
cm3
cm3
Call the density
The definition of density is D = mass/volume
kg/cm3
kg/cm3
kg/cm3
kg/cm3
It might be more convienent to express this as grams/cm3
kg/cm3 x g/kg
g/cm3
g/cm3 answer
