Question

A block has a volume of 0.07 m3 and a density of 3,500 kg/m3. What's the force of gravity acting on the block (and weight) in the air?

Answer 1

Given data:

The volume of the block = 0.07 m3 and density of the block = 3500 kg/m3.

Mass = volume x density; gravitational force = mass of the block x gravitational acceleration; f= 0.07x 3500x9.8 = 2401 newton.

The force of gravity acting on the block in air is given by the solution 2401N.
