how to calculate the mass of an object in matlab

To calculate the mass of an object in Matlab, you need to know its density and volume. The formula for calculating mass is:

main.m
mass = density * volume;

Here is an example code to calculate the mass of an object with density p and volume V:

main.m
% Define density and volume
p = 7800; % kg/m^3 (density of steel)
V = 1.5; % m^3 (volume of object)

% Calculate mass
mass = p * V;
disp(['The mass of the object is ' num2str(mass) ' kg.']);

Change the values of p and V to match the object you want to calculate the mass of. Note that the units of p and V must be consistent. For example, if the density is given in g/cm^3, you need to convert it to kg/m^3 before using the formula.
