Question

100kg silver has volume 10 cube the density of silver in cgs

Answer 1

Answer:

0.01 gm/cm³

Explanation:

Given

The mass of silver = 100 kg

Volume of the cube = 10 m³

We know that the density of a substance is given by the following formula

Density = Mass/Volume

Density of the silver = 100/10 kg/m³

                                 = 10 kg/m³

Now we know that 1 kg = 1000 gm = 10^3 gm

and 1 m = 100 cm

⇒ 1 m³ = 100³ cm³ = 10^6 cm³

Therefore, the density of silver in cgs = $\frac{10 \times 10^3}{10^6}$ gm/cm³

                                                               = $0.01$ gm/cm³
