The density of several metals is as follows: lead: 11,340 kg/m3; tin: 7310 kg/m3; aluminum: 2702 kg/m3. You are given a small box (0.1 m × 0.1 m × 0.075 m) and are told that it is filled with one of these metals. Unable to open the box and unable to read the label on the box, you decide to weigh the box to determine the metal inside. You find that the weight of the box is 53.8 N. Determine the density and specific volume of the box, and choose the likely metal inside.
