...quantity of fluid displaced by the part immersed is equal to the weight of the whole body. And hence, as the specific gravity of the fluid is to that of the body, so is the whole magnitude of the body to the part immersed. The specific gravities of equal solids... | |

...surface. 13. If a body float freely in a fluid, prove that its volume is to that of the fluid displaced as the specific gravity of the fluid is to that of the body. A closed cubical vessel 1 inch thick is to be made of material whose specific gravity is 27/19, and... | |

...and show that when a solid is immersed in a fluid the weight lost is to the whole weight of the body as the specific gravity of the fluid is to that of the solid. 10. Explain the principle of the hydraulic press, and find the mechanical power in a machine... | |
