2. Derive an equation for determining the density of a floating/wooden object using Archimedes' Principal without knowing the volume of the object(s). Your answer should be in terms of the mass of the wood un-submerged, the density of water, Reading 1 or m1, and reading 2 or m2 from the procedure above. Include a free body diagram.

Why are the three fluids and one gas layered as they are in this jar? No special procedure was used to make this happen. Be very descriptive in your answer and make sure to discuss all four layers A, B, C, and D using CER. identify each portion of the answer that corresponds to CER. (Example: Claim - the answer, Evidence - the answer, Reasoning - the answer.) Using this table as well as what you observe in the image, identify a reasonable combination of what the A,B,C, and D layers could be composed. In other words, the claim must correspond with your observation and the information provided to you in the question.

Please write neatly and make it readable. Do not type. At a depth of 10.9 km, the Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench of the Pacific Ocean is the deepest site in any ocean. Yet, in 1960, Donald Walsh and Jacques Piccard reached the Challenger Deep in the bathyscaph Trieste. Assuming that seawater has a uniform density of 1024 kg/m3, a. approximate the hydrostatic pressure (in atmospheres) that the Trieste had to withstand. b. What is the absolute pressure on that depth (in kPa(a))?
