What is the volume of a block of silver that weighs 107 N

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The volume of a block of silver weighing 107 Newtons can be determined using the formula that relates weight, volume, and density. The relevant equation is Weight = Density × Volume. Given that the density of silver is approximately 10,490 kg/m³, the volume can be calculated by rearranging the formula to Volume = Weight / Density. Thus, the volume of the silver block is approximately 0.0102 m³.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic physics concepts, specifically weight and density
