A plastic toy has a volume of 40 cm³ and a density of 1.2 g/cm³. What is its mass?


To find the mass of the plastic toy, we can use the formula:

\[
\text{Mass} = \text{Density} \times \text{Volume}
\]

### Given:
- **Volume (\( V \))**: 40 cm³
- **Density (\( \rho \))**: 1.2 g/cm³

### Calculation:
\[
\text{Mass} = 1.2 \, \text{g/cm}^3 \times 40 \, \text{cm}^3 = 48 \, \text{g}
\]

### Answer:
The mass of the plastic toy is **48 grams**.

1. What would the mass be if the volume was 50 cm³ and the density remained the same?
2. How does changing the density affect the mass if the volume stays constant?
3. What is the volume of the toy if its mass is 60 grams with the same density?
4. If the density were reduced to 1.0 g/cm³, what would the new mass be for the same volume?
5. How does the density of an object relate to its mass and volume in general?

### Tip:
Remember, density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. A higher density means more mass in the same volume, while a lower density means less mass.

Learn how to calculate the mass of a plastic toy with a density of 1.2 g/cm³ and a volume of 40 cm³ using the formula Mass = Density × Volume. Understand the relationship between mass, density, and volume. Suitable for high school students studying physics or chemistry.
