** 12. You have a block of unknown material of mass 18 grams and volume 20 cm3. You have a bucket of water (p filled right to the brim. 1 g/cm3) and a bucket of alcohol (p = 0.79 g/cm3). Both buckets are a) What is the density of the block? b) Which of the buckets, if any, does it float in? Explain your reasoning c) When the block is placed slowly and carefully in the bucket of water, how many cm3 of water spill over the edge? d) When the block is placed slowly and carefully in the bucket of alcohol, how many cm3 of alcohol spill over the edge? e) If you had a 37-gram chunk of this material (the same material as the block), what would its volume be?

A length of clear plastic tubing is bent into a vertical U, as shown in the figure, and two liquids that do not mix are poured into it. Liquid A, with density ρA continues from the left column into the right. Its height is d1 in the left column and d2 in the right column. Liquid B, with density ρB, sits on top of liquid A in the right column. Its height is d3 above liquid A. a) Enter an expression for the density of liquid B, in terms of the other defined quantities. b) Calculate the density of liquid B, in kilograms per cubic meter, if liquid A has a density of ρA = 1.6×103 kg/m3, and d1 = 11.8 cm, d2 = 7.2 cm, d3 = 6.3 cm.
Question 3 (1 point) 1.00 L (0.00100 m*3) of water is poured into a large container. 100 g of ice is added to the container. The ice floats freely and does not touch the bottom of the container. The densigy of ice is 917 kg/m. When the ice melts, what happens to the level of the water in the container? The water level rises. The water level stays the same. The water level falls. There is not enough information to tell.

1. A tired engineering student wants to take a summer break after a stressful exam and wanted to have a little dip in the pool, but just as he was watching over the swimming pool, he saw a tire beside him and wondered how much of it will float in water. By calculating, he learned that the tire's density is Prire = 340 kg/m and the swimming pool's density is puquid = 1120 kg/m? a. What fraction of the tire is beneath the surface of the water? b. What fraction of the tire is above the surface of the water? C. Did the student already review for the upcoming midterm exam?
The same fluid (density unknown) fills three depressions on an alien planet. Depression #1 is a small pond. Depression #2 is a large lake. Depression #3 is a very large ocean. All of these depressions have the same depth. Gravity g is the same at all three locations. However the value of gravity is unknown. How do the gauge pressures at the bottoms of the three depressions compare? A. P3 > P2 > P1 B. They are the same C. P1 > P2 > P3 D. Can't tell without knowing the dimensions of the depressions.
