012–07192A Discover Density Set 3 The Speed of Sound (pre-lab) Introduction This sample problem presents you with experimental data, and then leads you through a process to obtain an equation that relates the data. A similar problem based on the materials in this set is left for you to do, based on ...

012–07192A Discover Density Set 5 Introduction In this activity you are given four rectangular solid metal pieces, and four similar plastic pieces. You are asked to take data, organize it, graph it, and create equations relating the mass and volume of each of the two kinds of material. A minimum of ...

Discover Density Set 012–07192A 10 The final equation is thus: y = 1.47 g/cm 3 x 3 , and replacing the symbols x and y with more meaningful symbols (e for edge, m for mass), the final result is: m = 1.47 g/cm 3 e 3 . Although this is sometimes a tedious way to discover an equation representing data,...
