Answer 2

Answer:

Given: Volume of box = 350 cm3

Mass of box = 500 g

Density of object = Mass of object / Volume of object = 500 / 350 = 1.43 g/cm3

We know, the density of water = 1 g/cm3

Since, the density of box > density of water, therefore, the object will sink in water.

Now, volume of liquid displaced = Volume of the object = 350 cm3

⇒Mass of liquid displaced / Density of liquid displaced = 350 cm3

⇒Mass of liquid= 350×1 = 350 g
