The volume of 500 g sealed packet is 350 `cm^3`. Will the packet float or sink if the density of water is `1(g)/(cm^3)`? What will be the mass of the water displaced by this packed?

Explanation

Here , mass of packet, `M=500g`
volume of the packet , `V=350cm^(3)`
Clearly , density of packet,
`d=(M)/(V)=(500)/(350)=1.428g//cm^(3)` Since the density of packet is more than density of water, the packet will sink .
As the packet is fully submerged in water,
mass of water displaced by the packet `=` volume of the packet `xx` density of water
`=(350cm^(3))xx(1g//cm^(3))=350g`
