Assignment:
Q1) A material will float on the surface of a liquid if the material has a density of less than that of the liquid. Given density of water as 1.0g/mL, will a block having a volume of 1.2*10^4 in^3 and weighing 350 lb float or sink?
Q2) The density of pure silver is 10.5g/cm^3 at 20 degrees C. If 5.25 grams of pure silver pellets is added to a graduated cylinder containing 11.2 mL of water, to what volume will the water in the cylinder rise?
Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
