A block of wood of density `0.8 g cm^(-3)` has a volume of `60 cm^3` . The mass of block will be :

Options

A. 60.8 g
B. 75g
C. 48g
D. 0.013 g

Answer

To find the mass of the block of wood, we can use the formula that relates density, mass, and volume. The formula is:

\[ \text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} \]

From this formula, we can rearrange it to find mass:

\[ \text{Mass} = \text{Density} \times \text{Volume} \]

Now, let's plug in the values provided in the question:

1. **Density of the wood**: \( 0.8 \, \text{g/cm}^3 \)
2. **Volume of the wood**: \( 60 \, \text{cm}^3 \)

Now, we can calculate the mass:

\[ \text{Mass} = 0.8 \, \text{g/cm}^3 \times 60 \, \text{cm}^3 \]

Now, perform the multiplication:

\[ \text{Mass} = 0.8 \times 60 = 48 \, \text{grams} \]

Therefore, the mass of the block of wood is \( 48 \, \text{grams} \).

### Final Answer:
The mass of the block is \( 48 \, \text{grams} \).
