    Calculating Buoyant Force of Ice in Water: Homework Practice

    all it says is that d=m/V so what i did was solve for V. There isn't a clear cut example unless I'm missing something which is possible.

    Calculating Buoyant Force of Ice in Water: Homework Practice

    I ended up with V=m*d is 917 kg/m3 *.90kg= 825.3 so now that i got the volume do i find the rest in formula, please forgive me i need to see symbols to figure this out.

    Thermal expansion bt. steel rule and vycor glass brick

    I was using the books list. So should I still use the Coeffient for glass even though the problem says to assume that the glass doesn't expand in this problem.What is the proper way to set up my formula and coeff ? Can you show me another way?
