If the area density is 5.5kg/m², then what is its volumetric density in kg/m³?;)



The thickness is 1/8 inch.



I'm not getting the answer I'm being told is the correct answer and going nuts here;)



What is the formula here?



Thank you.

          A first step is converting the $1over8$ inch to a metric quantity. You have obtained $0.0031$ m. It follows that your one square meter sheet is in reality a box of volume



          $V=1$ m$^2 times0.0031$ m = $0.0031$ m$^3 $.



          Since this "box" weighs $5.5$ kg the volumetric density $rho$ of the material is given by



          $rho=displaystyle5.5 >rm kgover0.031>rm m^3=1774.2>$ kg/m$^3$.



          That's my last word on this matter.

          • right, which is 3.1mm or 0.0031m. I can't just add this to the square meter mass.

          • Thank you, but this is exactly what I arrive at, but when I ask the supplier he says: "The Acoustiblok Blok 16 is 5.5 kilograms per square meter. A small roll of material that is. 54” x 8” x8” with a length of 30 feet unrolled has a density of 33.79 kilo/2.109 cubic meter". So, this doesn't make sense to me, at all;)

          $rho=displaystyle5.5 >rm kgover0.031>rm m^3=1774.2>$ kg/m$^3$.



          That's my last word on this matter.
