To find the volume of an irregularly shaped wooden piece, a sinker made of steel (relative density = 7.85) having a mass of 157 g was used. If the level of water before and the after immersing the sinker-wood combination are 102 ml and 170 ml, respectively, find the volume of the wooden piece. |

Answer» ` Volume= ("mass")/("density")` (ii) Will wooden piece float on water? The relative density of the sinker = 7.85 So, the density of the sinker = `7.85 g cm^(-3)` Given the mass of the sinker = 157 g. Then, the volume of the sinker =` (d)/(m)` Given the volume of (sinker + wooden piece), find the volume of the sinker. what is the change in the volume of water due to the immersion of sinker and the wooden piece? Then, find the volume of the wooden piece |
