Peter Pim is driving a front-end loader while Mark Miller is on vacation. The bucket of the BigHold front-end loader holds 3500 kg of stones when it is filled to the rim. The capacity of the bucket is 2 m3. Your supervisor would like you to determine the density of the stones. For this Peter placed 5 kg of the stones in a measuring device with a total volume of 12.5 liters. Then he added a liquid with a density of 985 kg/m3 into the measuring device. The total mass of the stones and the liquid inside the measuring device is 15.6 kg. Peter asked you: - To determine the apparent density (in kg/m3) of the stones, and - To calculate how much sand (in m3) needs to be added to the bucket-load in order to produce the greatest packing factor.
