1. You are given a beaker of an unknown fluid. A cube of wood 1.0 cm on each side sinks by 2.0 mm. What is the density of the liquid? (You will need to look up the density of wood in the text). 2. You are given a beaker of an unknown liquid, a beaker of water, and an irregular object of unknown density. The irregular object displaces 65% of its volume when floating in water, but 45% when it floats in the unknown liquid. a. Is the unknown liquid more or less dense than water? b. What is the (average) density of the irregular object? c. What is the density of the unknown liquid? 1. You are given a beaker of an unknown fluid. A cube of wood 1.0 cm on each side sinks by 2.0 mm.

To solve these problems well need to use the principles of buoyancy and density 1 To determine the density of the unknown liquid we can use the concept of buoyancy When an object is submerged in a flu... View the full answer
