(buoyancy) an irregularly shaped piece of a solid material weighs 8.08 lb in air and 5.66 lb when completely submerged in water. determine the density of the material.

Respuesta :

The density of the material is p =5.6 sl/ft^3 .

What is density?

The substance's mass per unit of volume is known as its density (volumetric mass density or specific mass). Although the Latin letter D may also be used, the sign most frequently used for density is (the lower case Greek letter rho). Density is mathematically defined as mass divided by volume.

The difference between an object's weight in a normal atmosphere and its weight inside water determines the force of buoyancy for an object of any shape:

Fb = Fw atm - Fw water

= 8.05 lb - 5.26 lb

=2.79 lb

We may determine the density of an object's structure by knowing its weight in the standard atmosphere, buoyant force, and water density:

p = (p h2o. Fw atm)/ Fb

putting the values and calculating we get :

p =5.6 sl/ft^3
