A cannonball made of iron has a volume of 1115 cm^3. If iron has a density of 7.86g/cm^3, what is the mass in grams of the cannonball? M=V x D

Respuesta :

M=V·D

V=1115

D=7.86

M=1115·7.86

M=8763.9

The mass of the cannonball is 8763.9 grams.

Lanuel

The mass in grams of the cannonball is 8763.9 grams.

Given the following data:

  • Volume of cannonball = 1115 [tex]cm^3[/tex]
  • Density of cannonball =  7.86 [tex]g/cm^3[/tex]

To find the mass in grams of the cannonball:

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of a substance or an object.

Hence, density is mass per unit volume of a substance or an object.

Mathematically, the density of an object is given by the formula;

[tex]Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]

Making mass the subject of formula, we have;

[tex]Mass = density[/tex] × [tex]volume[/tex]

[tex]Mass = 7.86[/tex] × [tex]1115[/tex]

Mass = 8763.9 grams.

Therefore, the mass in grams of the cannonball is 8763.9 grams.
