Answer :
Final answer:
The density of limestone is calculated to be 2410 kg/m^3, and the mass of 1.7 m^3 of limestone is found to be 4097 kg using this density.
Explanation:
To find the density of limestone, we use the formula:
Density = Mass / Volume
- For part a), we have a mass of 6025 kg and a volume of 2.5 m3. Using the formula:
- Density = 6025 kg / 2.5 m3 = 2410 kg/m3
- For part b), to find the mass of 1.7 m3 of limestone, we multiply the density by the new volume:
- Mass = Density * Volume = 2410 kg/m3 * 1.7 m3
- Mass = 4097 kg
Therefore, the density of limestone is 2410 kg/m3, and the mass of 1.7 m3 of limestone is 4097 kg.
