Given Mass, find length of a side on a cube.?

Question

You have a cube made of ice. Its mass is 2.34 x 10^5 g. What is the length of one of its sides in cm?

Thanks for any help

Answer 1

Ice has a density of .9 g/cm so it's mas divided by its volume equals .9

solving D = m/v for v gives you 234000/.9 = 260000

take the cube root

Answer 2

Since, it is a cube, formula for its side = (cube root of)Volume

Now we need to take out Volume.

We have

Mass / Density = Volume

Density of ice (at 0° C) = 0.9167 g/cm³

Given mass = 2.34 * 10^15 g

=> 2.34 * 10^15/ 0.9167 = 2.55 * 10^15 cm³

Now, 1 side = (cube root of)(2.55 * 10^15)

=> 121383.109 cms

or 121.3831 meters

Answer 3

Ice (as in water ice) has a density of 0.9167 grams/ml

If the cube is 234000 grams, then it displaces 255263 milliliters. (234,000g divided by 0.9167 g/ml = 255263 ml). Find the cubic root of that (because a ml is also a cu. cm, and you're trying to find regular centimeters) and you have 63.4 cm per side

PS Mak that's 2.35 x 10^5 not 10^15.
