Chapter 2, Problem 6MC
Summary Introduction
To identify:
The heaviest one among once cubic foot of stem, water, and ice.
Introduction:
The force of gravity acting on an object is its weight, which can be calculated by multiplying its mass by gravitational acceleration. Whereas if the volume of the object doesn't change, the density of the object is precisely proportional to its weight.
