The volume of a 500 g sealed packet is 350 cm3. Will the packet float or sink in water if the density of water is 1 g cm−3? What will be the mass of the water displaced by this packet?
Answers
Hello there !
The density of the sealed packet will be = 500/350 = 1.428 (approx) gm/ cm cube
=> 1.428> 1 ( therefore the packet will sink)
=> And the displaced mass of water will less than the mass of the packet, since the buoyant force will not fully neutralize the weight of the packet.
Hope it helps!
_/\_Hello mate__here is your answer--

⭐ CONCEPT:-- If the density of an object is more than the density of a liquid, then it sinks in the liquid. On the other hand, if the density of an object is less than the density of a liquid, then it floats on the surface of the liquid.
________________________
Mass of packet, M = 500 g
Volume of packet,V = 350g/cm^3
Dencity of sealed packet =M/V
= 500 /350
= 1.428 g/cm^3
The density of the substance is more than the density of water (1 g/cm3). Hence, it will sink in water.
The mass of water displaced by the packet is equal to the volume of the packet, i.e., 350 g.
I hope, this will help you.☺
Thank you______❤
