Question

I threw a plastic ball in the pool for my dog to fetch. The mass of the ball was 125 grams. What must the volume be to have a density of 0.500 g/mL.
the answer for the first part of the question is 250ml

After throwing the ball in the pool for my dog, the ball sprung a leak and began to fill with water. How many mL of water can the ball absorb before the ball sinks?

Answer 1

Answer:

a hollow plastic ball is thrown into a swimming pool. It has a mass of 125 g, a volume of 250 mL, and a density of 0.5 g/mL. It springs a leak and begins ...

Answer 2

In this question , we have to find out the volume

v = m/d

mass =m = 125 gm    ( given)

density = d= 0.500 gm/ml   ( given)

v= volume

∴  v = m/d

        = 125 gm÷  0.500 gm/

         =250 ml

Ans:- The volume was 250 ml, the ball will sink when it's density will be same as water.
