Introductory: Iron is heavier than wood and lead is heavier than iron.By this we mean that, if we take pieces of the threematerials of the same size, the lead has the greatestweight, and so we conclude there are more pounds percubic foot (or grams per cubic centimeter) of… … Fig. 8. cm.° Experimental: All that is necessary for the calcu-lations is to know the mass and vol-ume. The volume of each of the solidsto be used has already been obtainedin Experiments 3 and 4. The mass of a body is measured byits weight. The greater the mass, themore a body will stretch a spring…
