Chapter 1, Problem 20P
A brass washer has an outside diameter of 4.50 cm with a hole of diameter 1 25 cm and is 1 50 mm thick. (See Figure 1.23.) The density of brass is 8600 kg/m3. If you put this washer on a laboratory balance, what will it “weigh” in grams? (Recall that density is mass divided by volume and consult Chapter 0 as needed.)

The density of ordinary air is 1.19 g/L. What is the mass, in kilograms, of the airin a room that measures 14.5 ft x 16.5 ft x 8.0 ft?(Hint: Density is defined as d= m/v, so you need to find the volume of the roomand solve for the mass in the density equation. Make sure you do the appropriateconversions to carry out your operations. Use the correct number of significantfigures to express your answer).
Water has a density of 1.00 Mg/m3. What is the density expressed in imperial units? Express your answer to three significant figures and in slugs/ft3.
