Only in the metric system. The metric system bases its unit of weight, the gram, on the weight of one millilitre of water. Therefore one litre of water (or other liquid which is mostly water) weighs one kilogram (1000 grams)
The weight of the rock will be lessened by the weight of the same volume of water. If the rock weighs less than that volume of water, it will float (as does pumice). Thus, if you had a rock that has a density (weight/volume) of 2 times the same volume of water, it would weigh one half of its dry weight when in water.
WATER
No, sand and water do not weigh the same for the same volume. Water has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter, while the density of sand varies but is generally higher, so the weight of the same volume of sand will be greater than that of water.
The difference between an object's weight, and the weight of water with the same volume as the object.
It is not. It varies slightly. The volume of ice will be larger than with water when water and ice are the same weight.
The weight of eggs, water and milk are measured in ounces or cups. The volume of water, eggs, and milk is measured as a liquid. The volume of butter is measured as a solid.
It depends on the volume of the box. The bigger the volume, the larger amount of water that will be displaced.
The difference in weight between ice and water is that ice is less dense than water, so a given volume of ice weighs less than the same volume of water.
they share the same volume. In the Metric system, Liters are a measurement of volume, not of weight. Therefore, 10 Liters of water would share the same volume as 10 Liters of Mercury.
They are the same volume and very close to the same weight.
Yes, in respect of samples of wood and water with the same weight. Before you put the wood in the water, the bulk of the water is supporting a volume of water at the surface, whose shape is the same as the submerged part of the wood. Wood has a lower density so the weight of the wood below the surface is lower than the weight of the water it displaced, and the weight of the wood above the surface makes up the difference, so the water is supporting the same total weight as before.
Archimedes principle states that a floating body displaces its own weight of water. The density of the water is fixed so the volume displaced by a floating body is is the same for floating bodies of the same weight. The water level will still be delta h1 as the volume of the block is not relevant to the amount of water displaced.
