In a closed container of volume v, there is mass M of water and steam. The density of steam is RHO_steam, and the density of water is RHO_water. What is the volume of water, v? It can be calculated using the formula: v = (M – RHO_steam * v) / (RHO_water – RHO_steam). Is there such a formula? ? ? Could you explain it in detail? ? ? Please, everyone
The denominator is the difference in densities; a bracket was missing. Just write out the simple equation yourself and you’ll understand
Why is mass divided by the difference in densities? ? ? ? ? Isn’t the volume of water equal to the mass of water divided by the density of water? ? ? Why divide by the difference in density?
List two equations, one for volume and one for mass, and then the result will appear
