If Fig. 14-67a , a rectangular block is gradually pushed facedown into a liquid . The block has height d, on the bottom and top the face area is A = `8.00 cm^(2)` . Figure gives the apparent weight `W_(app)` of the block as a function of the depth h of its lower face . The scale on the vertical axis is set by `W_a = 0.20` N . What is the density of the liquid ?
