Problem

A solid metal object is formed by firmly joining a right circular cylinder to a hemisphere of the same radius. The radius of both the cylinder and the hemisphere is 2 cm2\,\text{cm}. The height of the cylindrical part is 5 cm5\,\text{cm}. The combined mass of the object is 1020 g1020\,\text{g}. (i) Calculate the total volume of the object in cm3\text{cm}^3. (ii) Determine the density of the metal in g cm−3\text{g\,cm}^{-3}. (iii) Convert this density into kg m−3\text{kg\,m}^{-3}.
