About This Product
Each cylinder is weighed, its diameter and height are measured, and its volume is worked out from the cylinder formula. Students then calculate density as mass divided by volume and compare the cylinders in the set. The Series of cylinders can be supplied on export terms to Laos, Libya, Australia, Ecuador and Timor-Leste.
