Q- What percentage of an ice cube is under water when it is placed into water? What percentage of an ice cube is submerged when it is placed in a drink that is straight 80 proof whiskey? (80 proof mean that it is 40% alcohol and 60% water.)
(Density of ice ri = 917 kg/m3, density of alcohol rA = …

A 9.0 kg block of metal is suspended from a scale and immersed in water as in Figure. The dimensions of the block are 12.0 cm *9.0 cm *9.0 cm. The 12.0 cm dimension is vertical, and the top of the block is 5.00 cm below the surface of the water.
- What are the forces exerted by the water on the …

Q- A uniform stick d = 1 m long with a total mass of 750 g is pivoted at its center by means of a friction-less peg. A 5.6 g bullet is shot through the stick midway between the pivot and one end. It approaches at v0 = 409 m/s and leaves at vf = 260 m/s.
- What is the moment of inertia of the sti…
