Answer:
[tex]V=0.56~m^3[/tex]
Explanation:
Density
It's a measure of the mass of an object or substance per unit volume. It can be calculated as:
[tex]\displaystyle D=\frac{M}{V}[/tex]
Given the density of solid copper as [tex]D=8960~Kg/m^3[/tex], we will calculate the volume occupied by M=5000 Kg of copper solving the above equation for V:
[tex]\displaystyle V=\frac{M}{D}[/tex]
Substituting:
[tex]\displaystyle V=\frac{5000}{8960}[/tex]
Calculating:
[tex]V=0.558~m^3[/tex]
Expressed to two significant figures:
[tex]V=0.56~m^3[/tex]
