Specific Weight Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Specific Weight?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

γ Unit = \frac{W body}{V T}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

γ Unit = \frac{20N}{63m³}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

γ Unit = \frac{20}{63}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

γ Unit = 0.317460317460317N/m³

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

γ Unit = 0.3175N/m³
