As an example, a 4.00-kg aluminum ball has an apparent mass of 2.10 kg when submerged in a particular liquid: calculate the density of the liquid.

1.2825 * 10^3 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given that :

Mass of aluminum ball (m1) = 4kg

Apparent mass of ball (m2) = 2.10 kg

Density of aluminum (d1) = 2.7 * 10^3 kg/m³

Density of liquid (d2) =?

Using the relation :

d1 / d2 = m1 / (m2 - m1)

(2.7 * 10^3) / d2 = 4 / (4 - 2.10)

2700 / d2 = 4 / 1.9

4 * d2 = 2700 * 1.9

4 * d2 = 5130

d2 = 5130 / 4

d2 = 1282.5 kg/m³

Hence, density of liquid = 1.2825 * 10^3
