Three fluids are in separate beakers. The first fluid has a density of 1.05 g/cm3, the second one’s density is 0.94 g/cm3, and the third’s density is 0.81 g/cm3. A ball of wood has a density of 0.94 g/cm3. Which statement is true? A) The ball floats on all three fluids B) The ball sinks in all three fluids C) The ball sinks in fluid 1, but floats on fluids 2 and 3 D) The ball sinks in fluid 3, neither floats or sinks on fluid 2, and floats on fluid 1 E) The ball sinks in fluid 1, neither floats or sinks on fluid 2, and floats on fluid 3
