What is the volume occupied by a 50 kg person?

Question

What is the volume occupied by a 50 kg person?

Answer 1

average human body has a density of 1010 kg/m³

So d=m/V--> V=m/d

V=.0495m³ or 49.5cm³

Answer 2

Human body is mostly water (roughly 1 g/cm^3), so 50kg would be about 50,000 cm^3 or 0.05 m^3

To be sure, find the exact density of the person, it varies due to body fat, bones... etc.

Answer 3

you would also have to metion the density of that person . beacause density it differs person to person.

if you know the density of that certain person you can than easily figure out the volume that he occupies by applying this formula,

                                    V=M/P

             where M= 50kg, P=density that you know, and V=volume

                              

                                      

Answer 4

approximately 60,000 ccs

cant forget about 10kg ballasts is needed to make one naturally buoyant in water.

Answer 5

The person's density is needed to figure this out, not their mass.
