Answer:
[tex]V=200cm^3\\\\\rho =0.500g/cm^3[/tex]
It will float.
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, given the width, length and height, we can compute the volume as follows:
[tex]V=W*L*H\\\\V=4cm*5cm*10cm\\\\V=200cm^3[/tex]
Moreover, since the density is computed via the division of the mass by the volume:
[tex]\rho =\frac{m}{V}[/tex]
We obtain:
[tex]\rho =\frac{100g}{200cm^3} \\\\\rho =0.500g/cm^3[/tex]
In such a way, since the solid has a lower density than the water, we infer it will float.
Best regards.
