11/07 ALF
1. Description
The cubes in this set allow the densities of various materials to be determined.
The set contains seven cubes made of a variety of materials in a storage container. The cubes are made of aluminium (Al), zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), brass (Ms), wood and PVC. Metal cubes are labelled as appropriate.
2. Technical data
Materials: Aluminium, iron, zinc,
copper, brass, plastic, wood
Side of cubes: 10 mm
Determination of the densities of solid bodies
To determine the density a set of scales will be neces­sary: 1 Electronic scales 600 g U42050-230 or 1 Electronic scales 600 g U42050-115
Use the scale to determine the mass of a cube.
Calculate the density of the cubes using the
equation
m
=ρ
V
Since the volume of each cube is 1 cm³, the mass in grams is equivalent in magnitude to the density.
