An aluminum cylinder weighs 1.07 N. When this same cylinder is completely submerged in alcohol, the volume of the displaced alcohol is 3.90 × 10−5 m3. If the cylinder is suspended from a scale while submerged in the alcohol, the scale reading is 0.743 N. What is the specific gravity of the alcohol? (The density of water is 1.00 × 103 kg/m3)
Bird bones have air pockets in them to reduce their weight. This also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone in air and in water and finds its mass is 46.0 g and its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (the bone is watertight). What mass of water is displaced? mass of water displaced: kg What is the volume of the bone? volume of the bone: m3 What is its average density? average density of the bone: kg/m³ about us privacy policy terms of use contact us help careers

A solid, square of floating ice measuring 5 m on a side and 0.33 meter thick floats partially submerged in water. Determine the number of penguins that can stand on the ice block without any of them getting their flippers wet? (i.e. such that the top surface of the ice block floats at water level)? Assume that the mass of each penguin is 10 kg. Round your answer to the nearest whole number of penguins. Assume the density of saltwater is 1030 kg/m3 and the density of ice is 980 kg/m^3
