Find Density of a cylinder with diameter of 5.0 cm and height of 12.0cm and mass of 600.0g

2.55 g/cm^3

Explanation:

density is defined as:

Density = mass/volume

Now, the mass of the cylinder is 600g

and the volume of a cylinder is:

V = pi*r^2*h

where r is the radius (half of the diameter), here r = (5/2)cm and h is the height, here 12 cm

So the volume is:

V = 3.14*(2.5cm)^2*12cm = 235.5cm^3

then the density is:

D = 600g/235.5cm^3 = 2.55 g/cm^3
