Watch your units! You will need to use the conversion 2.54 cm = 1 inch.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

The mass of the gold walking stick is 107.308 grams

Step by step solution

01

Given Information 

A gold walking stick in the shape of cylinder that is 4 feet high and 3 inches wide. Gold has a density of 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter.

02

Density formula 

The density of a substance is the mass per unit volume

The formula for density is

ÒÏ=MVMisthemassandVisthevolumeV=Ï€°ù2h'r'istheradiusandhistheheightofcylinder

03

 Conversion 

Convert the given height and radius to centimeter

1 inch = 2.54 cm

3inches=2.54*3=7.62inches1feet=12inches1feet=12(2.54)cm4feet=4*12*2.54=121.92cm

04

Volume of cylinder 

diameter=7.62cmRadius=diameter2=7.622=3.81cmVolume=Ï€°ù2hVolume=Ï€(3.81)2(121.92)Volume=5560cm3

05

find mass 

Density formula is

ÒÏ=MVMisthemassandVisthevolumeV=5560,ÒÏ=19.319.3=M556019.3(5560)=MM=107.308grams
