Topic 5 - Obj. 5.3

Density of a regular solid
Method:
1. Measure mass using a balance
2. Measure width, length and height using a ruler
3. Calculate volume (V = w x l x h)
4. Calculate density (ρ = m / V)

Results:
1. m = 580.4 g
2. w = 5 cm; l = 5 cm; h = 2 cm
3. V = w x k x g = 5 x 5 x 2 = 50cm^3
4. ρ = m / V = 580.4 / 50 = 11.608 g/cm^3
