A hollow metallic sphere has inner and outer radii, respectively as 5 cm and 10 cm if the mass of the sphere is 2.5 kg, find (a) density of the material, (b) relative density of the material of the sphere. |
Answer» The volume of the material of the sphere is `V=((4)/(3))pi(r_(2)^(3)-r_(1)^(3))=(4)/(3)xx3.14xx[((10)/(100))^(3)-((5)/(100))^(3)]=(4)/(3)xx3.14xx[0.001-0.000125]` `=(4)/(3)xx3.14xx0.000875m^(3)=0.00367m^(3)` (a) therefore density of material of the sphere is `rho=(M)/(V)=(2.5)/(0.00367)kg//m^(3)=682kg//m^(3)` (b). Relative density of the material of the sphere `rho=(681.2)/(1000)=0.6812` |
