Because you see the base of the steam from the surface of the water. This creates the effect of the stream bed being elevated to the surface. This happens in water because light travels slower in water than in a vacuum.

A cube 10.0 cm on each side has a density of 2.053 x 10^4 kg/m^3. It’s apparent weight in fresh water is 192 N. Find the buoyant
insens350 [35]

Answer:

9 N

Explanation: Given that L = side of the cube = 10cm = 0.1m

Mass = Density * Volume

Let’s determine the volume of the cube in m^3.

V = L^3

V = 0.1^3 = 0.001m^3

Mass = 0.001 * 2.053 * 10^4 = 20.53kg

Weight = 20.53 * 9.8 = 201.194

Buoyant force = 201.194 – 192 = 9.194 N

This is approximately 9 N.
