A block and a beaker filled with water are placed side-by-side on a scale (case A ). The block is then placed into the beaker where it floats (case B). How do the two scale readings compare?

The density of ice is 917 kg/m³, and the density of sea water is 1025 kg/m³. A swimming polar bear climbs onto a piece of floating ice that has a volume of 5.15 m³. What is the weight of the heaviest bear that the ice can support without sinking completely beneath the water? Number Units

While sitting on a boat floating on a small pond, you drop an anchor into the water. The anchor immediately sinks to the bottom. Does the presence of the anchor in the water cause the pond to get shallower, deeper or stay the same compared to when the anchor was on the boat? Explain your answer.

What is the buoyant force of an object with a volume of 0.5 m3 that is fully submerged in water? The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. O 500 N O 420 N 4,900 N 9,800 N

A metal bowl with a weight of 1.35 N is placed in a larger kitchen container filled with olive oil. How much olive oil must the bowl displace in order to float? For reference, the mass density of olive oil is about 910 g/liter and its weight density is about 8.92 N/liter. Please give your answer in liters.  liters

A metal bowl with a weight of 1.20 N is placed in a larger kitchen container filled with soybean oil. How much soybean oil must the bowl displace in order to float? For reference, the mass density of soybean oil is about 917 g/liter and its weight density is about 8.99 N/liter. Please give your answer in liters.

A 440 N object floats with three-fourths of its volume beneath the surface of the water. What is the buoyant force on the object?

A flat-bottomed aluminum fishing boat has a mass of 60 kg and an area of 4.0 m2. When it is launched into the water (density 1,000 kg/m3), how far (in m) below the surface of the water does the bottom of the boat sink? B. A fisherman and his buddy climb into the boat. If they, along with their gear, have a mass of 300 kg, how much farther (in m) does the boat sink into the water?

A hydrometer is a device used to measure the density of a liquid. It is a cylindrical tube weighted at one end, so that it floats with the heavier end downward. The tube is contained inside a large "medicine dropper," into which the liquid is drawn using the squeeze bulb (see the drawing). For use with your car, marks are put on the tube so that the level at which it floats indicates whether the liquid is battery acid (more dense) or antifreeze (less dense). The hydrometer has a weight of W-6.32 x 102 N and a cross-sectional area of A - 9.26 x 10³ m². How far from the bottom of the tube should the mark be put that denotes (a) battery acid (p=1280 kg/m²) and (b) antifreeze (p-1073 kg/m³)? (a) h= (b) h- i 0.07 i 0.084 m m Hydrometer Marks for two types of liquids.
