Density is 7.18 g/ml for post 1982 which is quite close to that of Zinc density of 7.14 g/ml. This makes some sense since the coin is 97.5 % Zinc and 2.5 % copper with a density of 8.92g/ml.
The mass is:
3.11 grams [pre 1982]
2.50 grams [post 1982]
The findings of a physics class:
I calculated it in my physics lab with a group of students -
To attempt to approximate for the different amount of nickel found in a penny past 1998, we took the avg of ten coins for thickness and mass. The density was found to be equal to 6.60 grams/centimeters cubic (approximately).
