Data Chart

FIGURE     PICTURE           FORMULA            MASS          VOLUME         DENSITY
                                                          3
1. Sphere                              v= 4/3 pi r

2. Cube                                 v= lwh
                                                              2
3. Cone                                  v= 1/3h pi r
                                                          2
4. Cylinder                              v= h pi r

5. Pyramid                               v= 1/3 lwh
                                                                       
6. Prism                                  v= 1/2 Bh

Conclusion:

1. What was the density of pinewood that you determined?
2. Determine the % error if the literature value is .678 gram/cc
