The gasoline poured into the vessel has a mass of 1.4 kg. Determine the capacity of this vessel.

Initial data: m (mass of gasoline poured into the vessel) = 1.4 kg.

Reference values: ρb (gasoline density) ≈ 700 kg / m3.

The capacity of the vessel will be equal to the ratio of the mass of gasoline and its density: V = m / ρb.

Let’s make a calculation: V = 1.4 / 700 = 0.002 m3 (2 dm3, 2l).

Answer: The capacity of the container with gasoline is 2 liters.
