Question:

Figure 9.41 shows a simple laboratory experiment. Calculate

(a) The volume and
(b) The density of the suspended sphere. (Assume that the density of the sphere is uniform and that the liquid in the beaker is water.)
(c) Would you be able to make the same determinations if the liquid in the beaker were mercury? Explain.
