Answer:
answer is 0.083
Explanation:
The block of ice that is placed on water has a density of 917 kg/m^3. The density of water is 1000 kg/m^3. If a fraction f of the volume V of the ice block is submerged in the water, f*V*1000*9.8 = (1 - f)*V*917*9.8
This gives f = 917/1000 = 0.917. The fraction of the block that is above the water is 1 - 0.917 = 0.083
The fraction of the ice block that floats above the water level is 0.083
