Liquid 1: Water (density: 1g/cm3)
Water displaced = 156 mL
mass of object was found to be 156 g
Liquid 2: Saltwater (density: 1.02 g/cm3)
water displaced: 158.4 mL
Mass of object was found to be 161.568 g
Use what you know about Archimedes’ Principle: specifically theequations  and , where the wsubscript refers tothe liquid the object floats on and the o subscript refersto the object itself. Derive a formula that relates the densitiesof the object and the fluid it floats on, as well as the depth thatthe object submerges in water relative to its height. That is, findhow the ratios of the object’s and water’s densities are relate tohow much of the object is submerged in the water. Since the objectfloats, we will know that the whole object cannot be submergedunderwater. Write out the formula below and find the density of theobject.
