an ice block submurged in the water, if the ice melt level
of water

Answer Posted / dhruv

Answer: The level of water will DECREASE after ice melts.
INTERESTINGLY, THIS DECREASE IN LEVEL WILL VARY LINEARLY
WITH INCREASE IN DENSITY OF THE FOREIGN OBJECT THAT IS
INTRODUCED INTO THE GLASS OF WATER (HREE THE FOREIGN OBJECT
IS ICE)
Explanation: Mass = Volume x Density
For a given mass, since water has density greater than that
of ice, ice will occupy more volume than water. So if an
ice cube of say, x gms. is placed in water, then the volume
of ice will be (x/1)c.c. (all quantities are expressed in
CGS units), whereas that of water, which will be formed
after ice melts, is (x/d)c.c. (where d is the density of
ice). Since d<1, (x/d) > (x/1), thus ice occupies more
volume than water having same mass.

V = pi*(r^2)*h = mass x density
As mass, pi and r are constants, h is directly proportional
to density

If you are a mechanical engineer, please fill out the questions below. I'd REALLY appreciate it if you'd help me out. Thank You. 1. What got you interested in mechanical engineering? 2. Where do you work? Exactly what is your job? 3. What did you need to study to become an expert engineer? 4. Is there a high demand for mechanical engineers right now? 5. What is your salary? 6. What are some of the main projects that you have worked on in the past? 7. What schools did you attend? 8. How would you describe mechanical engineering? (the definition of mechanical engineering?) 9. How long have you been in the engineering field? 10. From a scale of 1 through 10, 10 being the most, how much do you enjoy your job and why? 11. What do you like most about your job? What do you like least about your job? 12. Was it hard to find a job once out of college? 13. What advice would you give a student planning on entering this career? 14. What is the most important, or helpful, project that you have contributed to? 15. What is your name and email for further contact and as a resource? Please help me out if you can. I will really appreciate it. Thank You Very Much!
