    A solid floats in a liquid at 20^@ C with 75 % of it immersed. When the liquid is heeated to 100^@ C, the same solid floats with 80% of it immersed in the liquid. Calculate the coefficient of expansion of the liquid. Assume the volume of the solid to be constant.

    Write an expression for the relative density of a solid floating in a liquid in terms of the volume of the solid in the liquid and the total volume of the solid.
