What fraction of the volume of an iceberg (density 917 kg/m3) would be visible if the iceberg floats in (a) the ocean (salt water, density 1024 kg/m3) and (b) in a river (fresh water, density 998 kg/m3)? (When salt water freezes to form ice, the salt is excluded. So, an iceberg could provide fresh water to a community.)

Chapter 14, Problem 041 What fraction of the volume of an iceberg (density 917 kg/m3) would be visible if the iceberg floats in (a) the ocean (salt water, density 1024 kg/m3) and (b) in a river (fresh water, density 1000 kg/m3)? (When salt water freezes to form ice, the salt is excluded. So, an iceberg could provide fresh water to a community.)
An
iceberg floats in seawater. What fraction of the iceberg lies above
the seawater? V0 is the volume of the iceberg and Vf is the volume
of the submerged iceberg portion. Density of the ice = 920 kg/m3,
and density of the seawater = 1024 kg/m3.

The density of ice is 917 kg/m3, and the density of sea water is 1025 kg/m3. A swimming polar bear climbs onto a plece of floating ice that has a volume of 8.00 m3. What is the welght of the heavlest bear that the ice can support without sinking completely beneath the water? IN
The density of ice is 917 kg/m3, and the density of sea water is 1025 kg/m3. A swimming polar bear climbs onto a piece of floating ice that has a volume of 3.21 m3. What is the weight of the heaviest bear that the ice can support without sinking completely beneath the water in Newtons.
An irregularly-shaped iceberg has a volume of 3580 m3. It floats with 90% of its volume underwater, in sea water with a density of 1025 kg/m3. The bottom of the iceberg hangs 18.5 m below the surface of the water. a. What is the absolute pressure in the water at the bottom edge of the iceberg? b. What is the density of the iceberg? c. What is the mass of the iceberg?

An object with a density of 591.0 kg/m3 and a mass of 1939.0 kg is thrown into the ocean. Find the volume that sticks out of the water. (use ρseawater = 1024 kg/m3)
What fraction of ice is submerged when it floats in freshwater, given the density of water at a temperature of 0°C is very close to 1000 kg/m3 ?
A boat floating in fresh water displaces water weighing 35.0 kN. (a) What is the weight of the water that this boat displaces when floating in salt water of density 1.10 ✕ 103 kg/m3? ___ kN (b) What is the difference between the volume of fresh water displaced and the volume of salt water displaced (Vfresh − Vsalt)? (Take the density of fresh water to be 998 kg/m3.) ___m3
A 10cm×10cm×10cm wood block with a density of 650 kg/m3 floats in water. Part A What is the distance from the top of the block to the water if the water is fresh? . Part B If it's seawater? Suppose that ρ=1030kg/m3.
