Question 1164307: In an experiment, a student measures the average length and diameter of a cylinder to be 148.50 mm and 6.28 mm respectively. If the mass of the cylinder is 52.70 g, determine the density of the cylinder in units of kg/m3. Show all calculations below taking into account significant digits. The volume V of a cylinder is V =𝝅𝒅^𝟐𝒉/𝟒 where d is the diameter and h is the length of the cylinder.

Substitute the given data into the formula and calculate the volume in cubic millimeters.

Then divide by = 1000000000 to convert the volume from cubic millimeters to cubic meters.

Divide the given mass of 52.70 g by 1000 to convert it from grams to kilograms.

Finally, divide the converted mass by converted volume to get the density in kilograms per cubic meters, as requested.
