a mechanical pencil hass a mass of 47.4 grams. the volume of the pencil is 15.8 cubic centimeters. what is the density of the pencil

1 answer

Density is defined as the mass of an object divided by its volume. To find the density of the mechanical pencil, we divide the mass (given as 47.4 grams) by the volume (given as 15.8 cubic centimeters).

Density = Mass / Volume

Density = 47.4 grams / 15.8 cubic centimeters

Density ≈ 3 grams per cubic centimeter.
