Experiment 2: Graphing and Measurements Report Sheet Version B

use a metric ruler to make the required measurement(s) so you can calculate the volume for each object.

Table I: Density of Different Objects (All objects are made of the same material.)

Determine the average density:

*Provide one sample calculation for the volume and density of the cube below. Volume calculation:

Density calculation:

Table II: Calculations.

What is the slope from the equation of the line, y = mx + b? Include the unit for the slope.

What does the slope of the graph represent in this experiment? Do not provide a math definition.

Compare the slope of the graph with the average value you calculated in Table I.

Calculate the % difference.

% difference=calculated average value of slopevalue from graph 100
