To find the volume of an object, we can use the formula:
Volume = Mass / Density
For object A, the mass is 12g and the density is 3g/cm^3. Plugging in these values into the formula, we get:
Volume (A) = 12g / 3g/cm^3 = 4 cm^3
For object B, the mass is also 12g and the density is 5g/cm^3. Plugging in these values into the formula, we get:
Volume (B) = 12g / 5g/cm^3 = 2.4 cm^3
Therefore, object A has a greater volume by (4 cm^3 - 2.4 cm^3) = 1.6 cm^3.
The correct answer is:
d) Object B, by 1.6 cubic centimeters
Object A has a mass of 12 g and a density of 3 g/cm3. Object B has a mass of 12 g and a density of 5 g/cm3. Which object has a greater volume and by how much?
a) Object A, by 2.6 cubic centimeters
b) Object A, by 1.6 cubic centimeters
c) Object B, by 2.6 cubic centimeters
d) Object B, by 1.6 cubic centimeters
