#1: How many meters are in 0.05 kilometers? A. 50 B. 500 C. 5,000 D. 50,000 **MY answer: A is that right?? :)
#2: A container has the dimensions of 30 cm x 50 mm x 0.1 m. The density of its contents is 2.5 g/cm^3. What is the mass of the substance in kilograms? (D = m/V) A. 3.8 kg B. 38 kg C. 380 kg D. 3,800 kg ***Idk :( please explain? :) thanks :)
heyy!! :) so did i get #1 right?? is it A. 50??
hey ! yep # 1 is A for #2 use the formula Density = mass/ Volume
1 cm^3 = 1 mL
do find the volume of the box.. length x width x height
wait what?? so i use mass/volume=d so how do i find the mass?? and the density is 2.5 g/cm^3? so i plug in and get this? 2.5 g/cm^3=m/?? idk how to find the volume :( is this the lxwxh?? 30 cm x 50 mm x 0.1 m.
haha yep, to get the volume of a rectangular box you multiply all 3 lengths in the 3 dimensions
but you have to convert all the units to the same unit
how do i do that?? I'm so bad at converting :(
1 m = 100 cm = 1000 mm
it's easy with the metric system, i hate inches and yards all that nonsense
so i get this? 30 cm x 50 mm x 0.1 m =0.3m x 0.5m x 0.1 m ??
30 cm = 0.3 m 50 mm= 0.05 m remember just move the decimal point over 3 times when dividing by 1000
ohh so i multiply all that and get this? 0.0015 m ???
yep m^3 though remember your units now notice that they give you density in units of g/cm^3 so you have to convert either one to match .. id suggest convert m^3 to cm^3 ..
wait so i get this? V=30cm x 5cm x 10cm=1500 cm3
???
and then i get this?? d=m/V which is the same as m=dV so i get this??? m=2.5g/cm3 x 1500cm3 = 3750g = 3.75kg which is about 3.8. So the answer is 3.8kg??? is answer A. 3.8 kg my answer?? @aaronq ?? :D
yep!
sorry my internet connection is garbage and i keep cutting off
but you are correct ma friend
oh it's okay!! YAYYYY :) woot woot!! Thanks :)
and yeah my internet is like sooo annoying sometimes :(
wooo (y) no problem, it was all you man!
