A cylinder with internal diameter of
5cm and 15 cm high is filled up with an unknown substance.
The mass of the cylinder is 4.6 kg which is 300% of the unknown substance
mass. Determine the density and the specific gravity of the unknown substance.

density=mass/volume=
mass stuff= 1/4 4.6 kg if I read your statment correctly. I am uncertain if when it is said the "mass of the cylinder" that means the cylinder with the stuff, or the cylinder itself. I took it as the cylinder with the stuff.
densiy= (.25*4.6)kg/(PI (2.5^2*15) kg/cm^3
