Question
A cube of side L whose density is 2 g/cm3
floats half submerged in
a liquid of density 4 g/cm3
as shown in Figure 1. A student pours water from
density 1g/cm3
until she barely covers the cube as shown in figure 2.
a) Determine the height (h) as a function of L that the cube remains submerged in the
density liquid of 4g/cm3.
(Water and liquid do not mix.)
