Question

Q10.A measuring cylinder contains water upto the 46ml mark.When a stone is immersed in it,the water level rises upto 74ml.If the mass of the stone is 45g,find the density of stone. *

Answer 1

Answer:Density is 1.60714285714 gcm/³.

Explanation: Amount of water in the measuring cylinder = 46 ml

                        Level of water after the immersion of a stone = 74 ml

                       Mass = 45 g

                        Volume = (74 - 46) ml= 28 ml = 28 cm³

Hence, density = Mass/ Volume = (45 / 28) gcm/³

                                                        = 1.60 (approx)gcm/³

                                                        = 1.60714285714 gcm/³
