A boat is constructed of wood having a density of 401.4 kg/m3. Its surface area is 15.5 m2, and its volume is 19.4 m3. When the boat is placed in freshwater (rfreshwater = 1000 kg/m3), a load of Kendall's Bust, m = 11,500 kg, is also placed on the raft. With the added load of the Bust, what depth, h (in meters), does the boat sink into the water? i.e. how far down does it sink, to remain floating?

Bird bones have air pockets to reduce their weight—this also gives them an average density significantly less than that of the bones of other animals. Suppose an ornithologist weighs a bird bone air and in water and finds its mass is 45.0 g ad its apparent mass when submerged is 3.60 g (assume the bone is watertight.)(a) What mass of is displaced? (b) What is the volume of the bone? (c) What is its average density?
