Answer:
your question in not complete.
you need to the high too.
There are different options here but all of them work by approximating and assuming.
i) that the boulder is above ground.
ii) that the bottom surface of the boulder is known.
iii) the shape of the boulder is taken into account.
The most accurate way is measuring it by displacement method but the boulder is immovable hence the volume can be calculated by measuring the boulder or a waterproof box to be built around the boulder and calculate the volume occupied by boulder.
All the above methods are estimating methods.
*Another way to find the density is through specific gravity.
S.G = <u>Density</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>object</u>
Density of water
If the material that makes the boulder is known that is if it's stone or a mineral then the specific gravity can be found.
If the boulder is purely rock then S.G lies between 3 - 3.5 and the density of water is known thus the density of the boulder can be found without moving the boulder.
This is what I think after correction and allthe best!
The amplitude is 0.8 cm. The wavelength is 2.0 cm.
<span>The equilibrant, also known as the counterbalancer in a force system, is an equal but opposite force that produces equilibrium. It acts against the resultant force to keep a body motionless. Suppose we have a 20kg mass on one end of a swing and nothing on the other. The swing will be titled unevenly because no force balances the 20kg weight. On the other hand suppose a weight of 40kg rest on the other end. This force doesn't produce equilibrium either because it isn't equal to the 20kg weight; the swing would tilt towards the weight of larger mass. A 20kg mass will balance the system. Hence the force which balances other forces, thus bringing an object to equilibrium is the equilbrant.</span>
