QUESTION:
Problem 5PE
Suppose you have a coffee mug with a circular cross section and vertical sides (uniform radius). What is its inside radius if it holds 375 g of coffee when filled to a depth of 7.50 cm? Assume coffee has the same density as water.
ANSWER:
Step 1 of 2
We have to find the radius of the coffee mug.
The shape of the mug is cylindrical so use The formula
V= and use the relation
Here, m is the mass
V is the volume
is the density
