(a) Volume of a cube of side 1 cm
Side = 1 cm = 1 × 10−2 m
Volume = (side)3
= (1 × 10−2)3 m3
= 1 × 10−6 m3
(b) Surface area of a solid cylinder
Radius r = 2.0 cm, height h = 10.0 cm
Total surface area of a cylinder:
= 2πr(h + r)
= 2π × 2 × (10 + 2)
= 48π cm2
Convert cm2 to mm2:
1 cm2 = 100 mm2
Surface area = 48π × 100
= 4800π mm2 ≈ 1.51 × 104 mm2
(c) Distance covered in 1 s
Speed = 18 km h−1
Convert to m s−1:
18 km h−1 = 18 × (1000 / 3600)
= 5 m s−1
Distance covered in 1 s = 5 m
(d) Density of lead
Relative density of lead = 11.3
Density of water = 1 g cm−3
Density of lead = 11.3 × 1
= 11.3 g cm−3
Convert to kg m−3:
1 g cm−3 = 1000 kg m−3
Density of lead = 11.3 × 1000
= 1.13 × 104 kg m−3
Final Filled Blanks:
Mass = \( (28 \pm 0.01) \, \text{g} \), Volume = \( (5 \pm 0.1) \, \text{cm}^3 \). What is the percentage error in density?
