You don't know that there are 100 cm in a m?
or 1000 m in 1 km?
So 100 x 1000 cm in a km

Copper- 89.62 g/cm^3 - 14700 / 164

Air - 15.38 m^3 - 20kg * 0.0013g/cm^3 then I just converted it into M^3, however it's probably easier to convert the 0.0013g/cm^3 in m^3 first.

Edit: I did hydrogen wrong.


I need to learn the method for this :/

1km doesn't equal 100cm


Think about it like this.

There are 1000 meters in a Kilometre
And there is 100cm in 1 meter.
Therefore there is 1000*100 cm in one km
Which is 100000cm

Now you want 1km^3

1km^3 is 1km * 1km *1km

So we can deduce that 1km^3 = 100000^3cm

Which can be wrote as 1 * 10^15 cm^3

or 1000000000000000cm^3

It's more in the realm of:

That's correct. Your unit of measurement is grams by the way.

Looks correct - On phone (walking dog lol) so I can't actually confirm it's right though.

I'll do the rocket question in a more visible colour.


For the 10^1/10^-4 , while I didn't do it this say, since I think it's easier to understand by writing it out, for demonstration purposes. You can think of it as 10^1-(-4) = 10^5

Volume = area of cross section x length.
So cylinders have volume, V=πr2h V=\pi r^2 h where h is the length.

I got the top ones. I think they are right. What about these?
