Question

The volume of 250 gram sealed tin in 400 cubic centimetre find the density of the tin will will tin float or sink in the water if density of water is 1 gram per cubic centimetre

Answer 1

volume of tin = 250g
mass of tin = 400cc

density = mass / volume
= 400/250
= 1.6g/cc

therefore, the density of the selaed tin = 1.6g/cc

as density of water is 1g/cc

as density of tin > density of water
so, it will sink when kept in water.
