A piece of metal with a mass of 13.3 g was dropped into a graduated cylinder containing 16.00 mL of water. The graduated cylinder after the addition of the metal is shown. Determine the density of the metal.

explanation:

2b2t

weight of any object is given by

w = m*g

where m is mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

for earth the value of g is 9.8 m/s^2 so

w=117.6 n m=12 g=?

117.6=12g => g=9.8 m/s^2

which is the force of gravity on earth.
