What volume of water is displaced by a submerged 2.0-kg cylinder made of solid aluminum? (aluminum density = 2.7 x 10^3 kg/m^3 and water density = 1.0 x 10^3 kg/m^3)
There are three solids made up of aluminium, steel and wood, of the same shape and same volume. Which of them would have highest inertia?
A block of aluminum with a volume of 10 $\mathrm{cm}^{3}$ is placed in a beaker of water filled to the brim. Water overflows. The same is done in another beaker with a $10-\mathrm{cm}^{3}$ block of lead. Does the lead displace more, less, or the same amount of water?
