Suppose you have two 100-mLmL graduated cylinders. In each cylinder, there is 44.0 mLmL of water. You also have two cubes: one is lead, and the other is aluminum. The density of lead and aluminum are 11.3 g/mLg/mL and 2.70 g/mLg/mL respectively. Each cube measures 3.0 cmcm on each side. After you carefully lower each cube into the water of its own cylinder, what will the new water level be in each of the cylinders? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
