Question

WILL REWARD BRAINIEST! A right rectangular container is 6 cm wide and 10 cm long and contains water to a depth of 7cm. A stone is placed in the water and the water rises 1.7 cm. Find the volume of the stone.

Answer 1

Answer:

102cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

v=l×w×h

10x6x7=420 cm^3

the volume of water+stone=

10×6×(7+1.7)

522cm^3

522-420= 102cm^3

Answer 2

Answer:

volume without the stone = 5x12x7 = 420

volume with the stone = 5x12x8.7 = 522

for an increase of 102 cm^3 , so according to Archimedes that increase would have been caused by the volume of the stone.
