Answer

The steel ball will be caught up in between the mercury and water medium.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Mercury with a density of 13546 kg/m^3
  • water with a density of 1000 kg/m^3
  • Steel with a density of 8050 kg/m^3

From the factual density of both substances given above ,it shows that mercury is more heavier than water. In that case mercury will be at the lower layer when mixed with water.

The steel ball will be caught in between both mixtures as the density of  steel is 8050 kg/m^3.Which  is more than Water but less than Mercury.

VMariaS [17]
You are given the information that he takes six lessons per week. First we will calculate the total lessons he could potentially take per year.

6 • 52 = 312

He could potentially take 312 lessons in one year.

Now that you know this information, you simply subtract the days he missed from that total.

312 - 5 = 307

Your final answer: Peter took 307 lessons during the year.
