A bathtub is filled with 100 L of water. A cat jumps in and the volume rises to 125 L. If the cat has a mass of
400 g, what would be its density?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 3.2 g/L

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

[tex]density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\[/tex]

From the question

mass of cat = 400 g

volume = final volume of water - initial volume of water

volume = 125 - 100 = 25 L

The density of the cat is

[tex]density = \frac{400}{125} = \frac{16}{5} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

3.2 g/L
