A scientist is calculating the density of an ore sample. The scien- tist measures that the ore sample weighs 22.4 N in air. When the sample is suspended by a thin light cord and totally immersed in water, the tension in the cord is 14.2 N. What is the density of the ore sample that the scientist calculates. You can assume that any buoyant force from air is negligible.
