Transcribed Image Text:

A cylinder holds 80 g of water, which comes up to a height of 4 cm. An irregularly-shaped stone is then placed into the water, resulting in the water level rising to 6 cm. The figure shows the cylinder of water before and after the stone is lowered into the water. 4 cm 6 cm a) If the mass of the stone is 100 g, what is the stone's average density (in units g/cm)? b) If we lower another piece of this same stone with mass 50 g into the cylinder (which already holds the 100 g piece), what will the new water level in the cylinder be (in cm)?
