A cargo ship of mass 100,000 metric tonnes is floating in the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes are fresh water, so we can assume a density of 1000 kg/m^3. What is the volume of water displaced by this cargo ship? (m^3)
The weight of water displaced is equal to the weight of the floating object.
If the volume of the cargo ship is 5.00 × 10^5 m^3, what percentage of the ship's volume is below water? (%)
A wooden block of mass 14 kg is floating in a pool. This is a fresh water pool, so we can assume a density of 1000 kg/m^3. What is the volume of water displaced by this wooden block? (m^3)
If the volume of the block is 67 liters, what is the density of the block in kilograms per liter? (kg/L)
What is the density of the block in kilograms per cubic meter? (kg/m^3)
What percentage of the block is submerged? (%)
