Question

Place a beaker filled with water on the digital scale. The scale can read up to 1000 g, so you want
to make sure that there is not too much water in the beaker. Measure the mass of water without the object in it. Measure the mass of the object. Hang the object whose density you will determine, from the stand. Make sure that the object is completely submerged in the water but does not touch the bottom of the beaker. Record the reading on the scale for the combined water and object. Determine the specific density of the object.

a.) Draw the free body diagram for one of the objects in section IV when it is completely submerged
in the water. Use this to derive the expression for the specific density of an object that is shown in the equation:

^sobject=^pobject/^pwater=^wobject/(^wsystem-^wwater)
