Why does an object weigh less on the moon than on earth?
An easy experiment to estimate the density of a body is to weigh it in air and water. Consider a body of unknown density and volume. You weighed it in air, finding a value of 100 N. Then, using a special scale imported from the United States, you weighed the object submerged in water, finding a value of 5.6 lbf. Based on these results, find the density and volume of the object. Remember that the scale measures the result of the balance of forces on the body (or the sum of the forces). Show this balance of forces (or force diagram) on the body during your solving. Express the result in units of the International System and the American System of Engineering, and show any unit conversion calculations using the conversion factor. Consider the densities of water and air equal to 1000 kg/m3 and 1.18 kg/m3, respectively.

1. A water vessel was designed to go 149 miles underwater, with the surrounding fluid having a density of 1,030,000 g/m^3. What is the pressure difference between the outside and inside of the wall?
⦁ A hot air balloon holds 7.40 x 107 liters of gas. In order for the hot air balloon to rise into the sky, it must be heated to 120°C. Once the balloon is up in the air, the air needs to be cooled in order for the balloon to land. If the temperature of the balloon is decreased to 40.0°C, what will the new volume of the gas be? Remember to pay close attention to the units of temperature before beginning your calculations.
