Question

A metal sphere weighing 19.48g is added to 20ml of water in a graduated cylinder. If the density of the metal is 4.50g/ml, what will be the new level of water in the graduated cylinder?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Given A metal sphere weighing 19.48 g is added to 20 ml of water in a graduated cylinder. If the density of the metal is 4.50 g/ml, what will be the new level of water in the graduated cylinder?

We know that

Vw = 20 ml

Vs = m / ρ = 19.48 / 4.50 = 4.328 ml

V = Vw + Vs

V = 20 + 4.328

V = 24.328 ml

So the new level of water will be 24.328 ml
