if you are given a graduated cylinder that has 56ml of water in it and you drop a rock into the cylinder, the water level rises to 62ml. explain how you find the density
no way to tell, if the rock sinks. All we know is that the rock occupies 6 ml of volume.

A graduated cylinder contains 50 mL of water. A ball is dropped in and the water level rises to 62 mL. What is the volume of the ball?
To find the density of an object, you need to know its mass and volume. In this scenario, the mass of the rock is not provided, so we cannot directly calculate the density. However, we can use the displacement method to find the volume of the rock.
First, let's determine the volume of water displaced by the rock. The initial volume of water in the graduated cylinder is 56 ml, and when the rock is dropped in, the water level rises to 62 ml. Therefore, the volume of water displaced by the rock is equal to the difference in the water levels, which is 62 ml - 56 ml = 6 ml.
Now, to find the density, we need to determine the volume of the rock. We can do this by subtracting the volume of water displaced from the total volume of the graduated cylinder, which is 62 ml. So, the volume of the rock is 62 ml - 6 ml = 56 ml.
Now, if you have the mass of the rock, you can calculate its density by dividing the mass by the volume. However, since the mass is not provided, you won't be able to find the exact density in this case.
Remember, to find density, it is necessary to know both the mass and volume of an object.
