a square boat made from iron has overall dimensions of 2.00 cm x 11.0 cm x 11.0 cm. it has a mass of 213 g. water has a density of 1.00 g/cm3. will it sink in water? a. yes b. no
Density of boat = \(\frac{MASS}{VOLUME}\)
= \(\frac{213 g}{(2 cm * 11 cm * 11cm)}\)
= 0.88 g / cm³
Since the density of water is greater than the density of the boat ( 1 > 0.88) then that means, the boat will NOT sink.
B.
