The volume of an object is equal to the ratio of its mass to density, V = . The mass of a spherical grape is 8.4 grams and its density is 2 grams per cubic centimeter.
What is the radius of the grape? Round to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.

Respuesta :

Radius of grape is 1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass = Volume x density

Mass = 8.4 gm

Density = 2.4 g/cc

Substituting

       8.4 = Volume x 2.4

       Volume = 3.5 cm³

[tex]\texttt{Volume of sphere =}\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]

We need to find radius, r

Substituting volume value

              [tex]\texttt{Volume of sphere =}\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=3.5\\\\r^3=0.836\\\\r=0.941cm=1cm[/tex]

Radius of grape = 1 cm  

To solve the problem we must know about volume.

The radius of the sphere is whose mass is 8.2 grams and has a density of 2 grams per cubic centimeter is 1 cm.

What is volume?

The volume can be defined as the space occupied by the three-dimensional object.

It is given by the ratio of mass(m) and density(ρ).

[tex]\text{Volume of the object} = \dfrac{m}{\rho}[/tex]

Given to us

Mass of the object, m = 8.4 grams

Density of the object, ρ = 2 gram/cm³

As it is already mentioned that the volume is equal to the ratio of its mass to density. therefore,

[tex]\text{Volume of the object} = \dfrac{m}{\rho}\\\\\text{Volume of the object} = \dfrac{8.4}{2}\\\\\text{Volume of the object} = 4.2\ cm^3[/tex]

Thus, the volume of the object is 4.2 cm³.

To find the radius of the sphere we will use the formula of the volume of the sphere.

[tex]\text{Volume of sphere} = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r ^3[/tex]

Substitute the values,

[tex]4.2 = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r ^3\\\\r = 1\rm\ cm[/tex]

Hence, the radius of the sphere is whose mass is 8.2 grams and has a density of 2 grams per cubic centimeter is 1 cm.
