Concept explainers
Which block in each of the following drawings of a balance is more dense, red or green? Explain.
a)
Interpretation:
The denser block in drawing of a balance has to be identified and explained.
Concept Introduction:
Density:
Density can be defined as property that links mass of an object to its volume. It derived quantity and its unit is
Explanation of Solution
It is known that,
Density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume.
In (a), red is identified as denser block because it is found have more mass and less volume than green block.
b)
Interpretation:
The denser block in drawing of a balance has to be identified and explained.

- 1) State your interpretation of the meaning of the slope for the first graph you prepared of Volume of Steel Nuts (mL) versus Number of Steel Nuts. Hint: Understanding the meaning of a slope involves several factors: the units which are a ratio of the y axis units over the x axis units, the interpretation of the slope as “number of the y axis units for every one of the x axis units” and the concept that constructing the best line or curve that follows the trend in the data is a sort of averaging of the random error throughout the data.arrow_forwardCalculating the density of a rectangular wooden block (fig 3).
