A block of wood floats in oil with 85.3% of its volume submerged. What is the density of the oil? The density of the block of wood is 0.68 g/cm3. Block of Wood Floating in oil Physics Problem?
I'll give you a hint. This means the density of the block is 83% of the density of the oil. Hope that helps :)Block of Wood Floating in oil Physics Problem?
you can also think of it using fluid flow concepts so you would use:





density of the object x volume of hte object = density of the oil x volume of oil displaced Report Abuse
