A plece of ice floats in a beaker containing water with a certain fraction inside water. If the density of ice is D and that of water is rho find the value of n. What will happen to the level of water when the ice completely melts ? |

Answer» Solution :Volume of ice` XX` DENSITY of ice = Volume of imeresed PORTION of ice` xx` density of water ` "" VD = n V rho ,n= D//rho ` Volume of ice INSIDE water = `n V = (DV)/( rho )` mass of ice = VD = mass of water formed Volume of water formed `= ("Mass")/("Density") = (VD)/(rho)` This means when the whole ice melts, the volume of water formed is EQUAL to the volume displaced by ice. So the level of water will not rise. |
