Here, a liquid's density is to be determined by a 1-cm diameter cylindrical hydrometer whose division marks are non visable. The hydrometer is first dropped in water, and the water level is marked. The hydrometer is then dropped into the 'liquid x', and it is observed that the mark for water has risen 0.85 cm above the liquid–air interface. In this case, the height of the originalwater mark is 12.7 cm. As such, how would I determine the density of the liquid?

If a scuba diver descends too quickly into the sea, the internal pressure on each eardrum remains at atmospheric pressure, while the external pressure increases due to the increased water depth. At sufficient depths, the difference between the external and internal pressures can rupture an eardrum. Eardrums can rupture when the pressure difference is as little as 35 kPa. What is the depth at which this pressure difference could occur? The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3. 1)sketch (include everything in the system) 2)solution(step by step)
