periment was a concrete or lead object, a scale to weigh the object, string, empty bottles, sea water, a graduated cylinder for measuring the water accurately, and buckets filled with sea water. The procedure followed to perform the experimentation is as follows:1.Choose a concrete or lead object and weigh it on a scale. The unit of the scale was pounds. It s mass was 2.7 pounds.2.To find the weight of the object in ounces, the whole number of the weight was multiplied by 16 and then add the decimal. Then the solution was divided by 16. To convert the weight from ounces to kilograms, 2.44 was divided by 2.2.i.2 x 16 = 32ii.32 + 7 = 39iii.39/16 = 2.44iv.2.44/2.2 = 1.13.To obtain the volume of the object, a bucket was filled with sea water .The inside of the bucket was marked with a marker where the water reached. Then the object was placed into to the bucket to see how much the water would rise. When the object was taken out, the water height reduced.4.Using a graduated cylinder in liters, we measured how much water it took to reach the original point. This is the volume of the object. We converted it into liters by dividing by 1000.5.Displacement was calculated by multiplying the objects volume by the density of the seawater. .65 x 1.03 = .6695 Liters To find the extra amount of displacement needed was found by finding the difference between the mass and displacement. The solution was the difference in mass and the weight of the water being moved. This solution was divided by the density of the salt water at Seaquarium, which was 1.03 kilograms. The extra displacement needed was .54 liters of water, which was added to a 1-liter bottle.6.The object was tested by putting it in the ocean to see if it floats.7.Recalculated the air needed to make the object float. Added and subtracted water.The result of the experiment was that the object actually needed 4.39 liters of water to float in the seawater. We also used a bigger bottle. In conclu...
