4. Indiana Jones wants to find the density of an ancient artifact. Not all of his life is spent running from large boulders. He hangs this artifact from a spring scale and measures a reading of 34.8 N (a spring scale measures the weight of an object). He then immersed the artifact in water, again from the same spring scale and he measures a weight of 30.0 N. Just for kicks, he repeats the experiment, but replaces the water with oil. He measures a weight of 31.9 N when the artifact is in the oil. (a) Find the density of the ancient artifact. (b) Find the density of the oil.

P Which of the following statements accurately describes the buoyant force? The buoyant force is the force exerted on an object submerged in a fluid that causes it to sink. The buoyant force is the force exerted on an object submerged in a fluid that opposes its motion. The buoyant force is the upward force a fluid exerts on an object. The buoyant force is the force exerted on an object submerged in a fluid that is equal to the weight of the object. 4 UNANSWERED 5:47 15:57 QUESTION 1/4 ㄒㄧ→ Clemson Univers
