a Carver begins work on the following block of granite that weighs 2700g what is the density of the granite ​

Density" of the given granite block is 2.7g/cm

.

Explanation:

Density of an object is defined as the mass occupied per unit volume. “Density” is represented by “ρ”. Mathematically, \rho=\frac{m}{v}ρ=

v

m

where, “m" mass of an object and "v" is volume of an object.

Given that,

Dimensions of the block are 20 cm, 5 cm and 10 cm.

\text { Volume of the block is } l \times b \times h Volume of the block is l×b×h

\text { Volume of the block is } 20 \times 5 \times 10 Volume of the block is 20×5×10

\text { Volume of the block is } 1000 \mathrm{cm}^{3} \text { . } Volume of the block is 1000cm

.

Mass of the block is 2700 g.

Substitute the given values in \rho=\frac{m}{v}ρ=

v

m

to find density of a block.

\rho=\frac{2700}{1000}ρ=

1000

2700

\rho=2.7 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}ρ=2.7g/cm

\text { "Density" of the given granite block is } 2.7 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3} "Density" of the given granite block is 2.7g/cm
