    What conversions are needed for solving a density equation?

    The question is Calculate the density ρ1 of the aluminum block using equation (3) in the lab manual: The equation in the manual is p0 = W0 pf / Fb = W0pf / w0- T Al = 3.70 N but is 2.35 N submerged in water

    What conversions are needed for solving a density equation?

    3.70 * 1 in the numerator is 3.70.. then the denominator is (3.70 N) - (2.35 g/cm3). The 3.70 N would both cancel due to division, correct? So the answer would be 2.35 g/cm3 but it's subtraction so would the answer then be -2.35 g/cm3? I am not sure if density can be negative or not. I'd assume...

    What conversions are needed for solving a density equation?

    g/cm^3. The N will cancel in the numerator and denominator. 1 in the numerator can just be "thrown out". Since the numbers in the denominator are not multiplication, can we separate them to cancel with the numerator? so the answer that is left is -2.35 g/cm3 but can you have a negative...

    What conversions are needed for solving a density equation?

    Homework Statement I need to solve the problem listed below. I do not need the answer. I just need to know if there's any conversions that are needed. Do I turn Newtons into kg and kg into g or...? Any kind of leads to help solve this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Homework...

    What is the relationship between kinetic energy and gravitational acceleration?

    I am just confused on what I need to write in my lab report to be honest. Like, is Using the Law of Conservation of Energy, show that the slope of KE/m vs. y is the gravitational acceleration -g, the slope plus the uncertainty in one of the graphs? I'm just confused haha
