Question

6. Consider a solid object of unknown density that is hung from a spring scale. The gravitational force exerted on the object (i.e. the reading on the spring scale in air) is found to be 5.00 N. When the object is fully submerged in water, the scale reads 3.50 N. What is the density of the object? Answer: 3,330 kg/m³
