A Cup A contains a larger volume of water than cup B, denoted in the below as the "extra water". A pall is placed in container B as shown, which floats and causes the height of the water in B to rise and match that of A. Each cup sits on an identical scale to measure its total weight of cup contents. Which statement is true regarding the scale readings? They are equal because the ball compresses the water so that it has a higher density in Cup B than in Cup A, such that the total weights are the same. OCup A is found to be heavier because the ball is less dense than water. O They are equal because the weight of the ball is equal to the weight of the extra water. O Cup B is found to be heavier because it contains the ball. O Cup A is found to be heavier because it contains the extra water. B.

Concept explainers

Fluid Pressure

The term fluid pressure is coined as, the measurement of the force per unit area of a given surface of a closed container. It is a branch of physics that helps to study the properties of fluid under various conditions of force.

Gauge Pressure

Pressure is the physical force acting per unit area on a body; the applied force is perpendicular to the surface of the object per unit area. The air around us at sea level exerts a pressure (atmospheric pressure) of about 14.7 psi but this doesn’t seem to bother anyone as the bodily fluids are constantly pushing outwards with the same force but if one swims down into the ocean a few feet below the surface one can notice the difference, there is increased pressure on the eardrum, this is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure.

Question

B
Cup A contains a larger volume of water than cup B, denoted in the below as the "extra water". A
ball is placed in container B as shown, which floats and causes the height of the water in B to rise
and match that of A. Each cup sits on an identical scale to measure its total weight of cup +
contents. Which statement is true regarding the scale readings?
They are equal because the ball compresses the water so that it has a higher density in Cup B than in Cup A,
such that the total weights are the same.
Cup A is found to be heavier because the ball is less dense than water.
They are equal because the weight of the ball is equal to the weight of the extra water.
Cup B is found to be heavier because it contains the balI.
Cup A is found to be heavier because it contains the extra water.
