Question

water:
water displaced by the box?
8. The volume of a plastic covered sealed
bor is 350 cm and the box has a mass
500 g. Will the box float on water or
sink in water? What will be the mass of
(Ans : Sink, 350 g)​

Answer 1

Answer:

If it is less than water's density, then the object will float. Hence 1.42 > 1. This implies that the object will sink. Hence mass of water displaced = 350 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that volume of a plastic sealed box V=350cm^3

Given that mass of the plastic sealed box M=500g

we know that density d = M/V

= 500/350

= 1.6g /cm^3

Therefore, density of sealed box is greater than density of water. Hence, it will sind in water.

NOW,

Mas of the water displaced by the box =

volume * density of water.

= 350*1
