A rock is placed into a graduated cylinder containing 80 mL of water. What is the volume of the rock if the water level rises to the 120 mL level?
You're kidding.
120 ml - 80 ml = 40 ml
Volume of the rock is 40 ml....
40mL would be the volume
40
40ml
40mL
There are all true
Yes, that is correct!
To find the volume of the rock, we need to determine the change in volume of water when the rock is added to the graduated cylinder.
Here's how you can calculate it:
1. Find the initial volume of water: The graduated cylinder initially contains 80 mL of water.
2. Find the final volume of water: When the rock is added, the water level rises to the 120 mL mark. Therefore, the final volume of water is 120 mL.
3. Determine the change in volume: Subtract the initial volume of water from the final volume of water.
Change in volume = Final volume - Initial volume
= 120 mL - 80 mL
= 40 mL
The change in volume of water is equal to the volume of the rock. So, the volume of the rock is 40 mL.
