26. An unknown metal sample is measured to have a weight of 49 N in air (treated it as vacuum). Then it is totally submerged in oil that has a density of 895 kg per cubic meter, the apparent weight is 35 N. What is the true density of the metal? (Hint: The buoyant force hence is 49- 35 = 14 N) b. 3133 kg/m³ d. 2148 kg/m³ a. 1534 kg/m³ c. 2238 kg/m³
