Responses

2.03 m3
2.03 m cubed

20.3 m3
20.3 m cubed

0.49 m3
0.49 m cubed

0.203 m3

Answer 1

To calculate the volume of the iron block, we can use the formula:

\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}} \]

Given:

• Mass of the iron block = 16,000 kg
• Density of iron = 7,874 kg/m³

Plugging in the values:

\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{16,000 , \text{kg}}{7,874 , \text{kg/m}^3} \approx 2.03 , \text{m}^3 \]

Thus, the correct calculation for the volume of the iron block is approximately 2.03 m³.

The correct response is:

• 2.03 m3 (or 2.03 m cubed)
