Problem 2Given: A graduated cylinder filled with water. A cube is dropped into the cylinder and the water rises. See Figure 2. The cube is only partially submerged. The length of a side of the cube is 3.7 cm. Assume the specific weight of water is 9.81 kN/m3Required:a) What is the submerged volume of the cube in cm3?b) What is the weight of the cube in Newtons?c) What is the specific weight of the cube in kN/m2? Is it less than specific weight of water? The image shows two sets of beakers used to demonstrate the displacement method for measuring the volume of irregular objects.### Figure 1:- **Left Beaker**: Contains a liquid filled to the 100 mL mark.- **Right Beaker**: The same beaker with an irregularly shaped object submerged in the liquid. The water level rises to the 150 mL mark. **Explanation**: The volume of the irregular object can be determined by subtracting the initial volume of water (100 mL) from the final volume (150 mL), which results in a volume of 50 mL for the object.### Figure 2:- **Left Beaker**: Contains a liquid filled to the 150 mL mark.- **Right Beaker**: The same beaker with a regular cube submerged. The water level rises to the 200 mL mark.**Explanation**: The volume of the cube is calculated by subtracting the initial water level (150 mL) from the final level (200 mL), resulting in a volume of 50 mL for the cube.Both figures illustrate the principle of water displacement to measure an object's volume, useful for both regular and irregularly shaped objects.
