I would say the the lead displaces less water. Think about the sizes and densities. If you have a block of lead and a block of aluminum (weighing the same), common sense tells you, the lead block is going to be a lot smaller due to his great density. Therefore, smaller block displaces less water
If it's floating, then the buoyant force on it must be 30 pounds upward.
The buoyant force is equal to the weight of water displaced. For a dense object, such as a coin or a bowling ball, the weight of the object is greater than the buoyant force and the object will sink if you let go of it. For a less dense object, such as an ice cube or a block of balsa wood, the buoyant force is greater than the weight and you can feel it pushing the object toward the surface, resisting your attempt to hold it submerged. If you let go, the object will rise up and float.
The block of Styrofoam floats on water while a same size block of lead lies submerged in the water. The buoyant force is greatest on the lead. Compared to an empty ship, the same ship loaded with Styrofoam will float lower in the water.
The ship has two forces that affect the fraction of its volume that is above the surface of the water. The ship's weight is the downward force. The buoyant force is the upward force. Since the ship is floating, the magnitudes of these two forces are equal. The buoyant force is dependent on the density of the water. The density of salt water is greater than the density of fresh water. Let's look at the equation below. Buoyant force = Density * g * Volume of displaced water According to the equation, the buoyant force is directly proportional to the density. Since salt water is denser than fresh water, the buoyant force will be greater in salt water than fresh water. This force will push the ship up higher than if the ship was floating in fresh water. You could do this at home. Make a saturated solution of salt water. Then place a small wooden block into a glass of salt water. Use a ruler to measure the height of the fraction of the block that is above the surface of the salt water. Then place the block into a glass of fresh water and measure the height of the fraction of the block that is above the surface of the fresh water. You will see that the block is floating higher is salt water than in fresh water.

The density of water is greater than that of plastic. When a block of plastic is under water, the magnitude of the buoyant force or upthrust exerted by water on the block is greater than the magnitude of the weight of the block. Hence, the block of plastic released under water will come up to the surface of water.
yes, iron block w/ aluminum heads.... ls1 has aluminum block and aluminum heads
A solid block of steel will sink because the buoyant force isn't the same as its weight.
If it's floating, then the buoyant force on it must be 30 pounds upward.
density of aluminum block
GPS is a radio signal. Metals block radio signals. Aluminum is a metal.

Yes, it has an aluminum cylinder block and aluminum head.
