Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
a) Density is the ratio mass of a substance to the total volume it occupies. The SI unit of density is kg/m³. The formula for density is:
Density = mass / volume
1 ounce = 0.0283495 kg
1 inch = 0.0254 m
The mass of liquid = 1617 ounces = [tex]1617\ ounce * 0.0283495\frac{kg}{ounce} =45.84\ kg[/tex]
diameter of container (d) = 26 inches = [tex]26\ inches*0.0254\frac{m}{inch}=0.66\ m[/tex]
Radius = d/2 = 0.66/2 = 0.33 m
The volume of a hemisphere = (2/3)πr³
Volume = [tex]\frac{2}{3}*\pi*(0.33)^3 =0.075\ m^3[/tex]
Density = mass / volume = 45.84 kg / 0.075 m³ = 609.04 kg/m³
b) Specific weight = density × acceleration due to gravity = 609.04 kg/m³ × 9.807 m/s² = 5972.83 N/m³
