Answer:
a) The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.
b) The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the rectangular wooden block can be calculated as the multiplication of the length in each dimension: length, wide and height.
With dimensions 10 cm x 3 cm x 8 cm, the volume is:
[tex]V=L\cdot W\cdot H = 10\cdot 3\cdot 8=240[/tex]
The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.
If we know that the mass of the wooden block is 168 g, we can calculate the density as:
[tex]\rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{168}{240}=0.7[/tex]
The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.
