A solid wooden cube, 30cm on each side can be totally submerged in water if it is pushed downward with a force of 54N. What is the density of the wood?

the density of the wooden cube is 204.1 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given;

applied force, F = 54 N

length of each side of the solid wooden cube, L = 30 cm = 0.3 m

mass of the wooden cube is calculated as;

F = mg

m = F/g

m = 54/9.8

m = 5.51 kg

The volume of the wooden cube is calculated as;

V = L³

V = (0.3)³

V = 0.027 m³

The density of the wooden cube is calculated as;

ρ = m/V

ρ = (5.51 kg) / (0.027 m³)

ρ = 204.1 kg/m³

Therefore, the density of the wooden cube is 204.1 kg/m³
