Three cubes – marble, ice and brass – have the same volume. Which one has the greatest mass, which one has the smallest?
January 17, 2021 | education
| Since all three cubes have the same volume, and the formula for calculating body mass is: m = ρ * V, the cube with the highest density value will have a larger mass, and the cube with the lowest value will have a smaller mass.
According to the density table of substances:
ρ1 (marble) = 2700 kg / m ^ 3; ρ2 (ice) = 900 kg / m ^ 3; ρ3 (brass) = 8500 kg / m ^ 3.
Comparison: m2 (ice) <m1 (marble) <m3 (brass).
Answer: The brass cube has the greatest mass, and the ice cube has the smallest mass.
