John and Tau take their toys down to a nearby pond to play. John has a toy boat made from wood. He places the wooden boat on the pond and it floats. Tau, being a cheeky little boy, wants to make John’s wooden boat sink. So he attaches a piece of lead on one end of the string, and ties the other loose end onto John’s boat and gently places the lead into the water. Determine the smallest amount of lead (mass) that will be enough to sink John’s boat, assuming the specific gravity of wood is 0.5 and the density of the pond water is equal to the density of pure water.

Water at room temperature of 20.0°c is poured into an aluminum cylinder which has graduation markings etched on the inside. the reading in the graduations is 300.0 cc. the cylinder with the water in it is then immersed in a constant temperature bath at a temperature of 100°c. what is the reading for the level of water on the graduations of the cylinder after the water and the cylinder reach thermal equilibrium with the bath? the volume coefficient of expansion of water is 2.07 x 10^-4 k-1, and the linear coefficient of expansion of aluminum is 23.0 x 10^-6 k-1. a) 305.0 cc b) 304.0 cc c) 303.5 cc d) 303.3 cc e) 304.5 cc
