Question

Suppose you have two 100-ml graduated cylinders. in each cylinder there is 37.0 ml of water. you also have 2 cubes: one is lead and the other is aluminum. each cube measures 2.0 cm on each side. after you carefully lower each cube into the water of its own cylinder; what will the new water level be in each of the cylinders?suppose you have two 100-ml graduated cylinders. in each cylinder there is 37.0 ml of water. you also have 2 cubes: one is lead and the other is aluminum. each cube measures 2.0 cm on each side. after you carefully lower each cube into the water of its own cylinder; what will the new water level be in each of the cylinders?

Answer 1

we know that

1 ml is equal to 1 $cm^{3}$

The volume of the lead cube is equal to the volume of aluminium cube

The volume of the cube is equal to

$V=2^{3} = 8\ cm^{3}$

$V=8\ cm^{3}=8\ ml$

the new water level in each of the cylinders will be

37.0 ml+8 ml=45.0 ml

therefore

the answer is

the new water level in each of the cylinders will be 45.0 ml
