Answer:
Density of meteorite = 2.44 g/cm³
Explanation:
Apparent mass = Mass of solid - Mass of water displaced
Mass of water displaced = Mass of solid - Apparent mass
= 15.6 - 9.2 = 6.4 g
Density of water = 1 g/cm³
Volume of water displaced [tex]=1\times 6.4=6.4cm^3[/tex]
Volume of meteorite = Volume of water displaced = 6.4 cm³
[tex]\texttt{Density of meteorite}=\frac{\texttt{Mass of meteorite}}{\texttt{Volume of meteorite}}=\frac{15.6}{6.4}=2.44g/cm^3[/tex]
Density of meteorite = 2.44 g/cm³
