Porosity is a measure of the void or empty spaces in a material and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume. The density of the solid material used to create 7 pieces of 0.72 cm diameter and 0.92 cm height cylindrical beads is determined to be 1.57 g/mL. These beads were then placed in a flask and was filled to the 35 mL mark with a salt solution. The total weight measured of the beads and the salt solution was 42.49 g. Upon further inspection, it was found that manufacturing defects caused the measured porosity of the beads to be at 21%. Assuming that the solution was able to fully fill the empty spaces inside the beads, calculate the density of the salt solution.

The nearest bridge is 20 miles to the north, too dangerous and too far to trek with your group. You explore the area down river and discover an abandoned shed with a stash of 55-gallon drums (all empty and weighing 35.0 lb each) and a stack of 10-foot planks: you will build a raft. The six members of your team have a combined weight of 1015 pounds (assuming everyone was truthful). You also have a four-wheeler (all-terrain vehicle), which weighs 460 lb, and other gear, which adds another 325 lb. Your simple raft design is as follows: platform of planks with barrels strapped to the bottom. You estimate that the planks weigh about 49.0 lb each, and you will need 20 of them to make a platform that can accommodate everything for the one-way trip. You measure the dimensions of the cylindrical drums and find they have diameter D = 23.0 inches and height h = 34.5 inches…arrow_forwardA cube 8.22 cm on each side is made of a metal alloy.
