(c) Summary of displaced volume
When the block is completely submerged, how does the volume of the block compare to
the volume of liquid displaced? The volume of the block can be found in the upper left-
i.
hand side of the screen in the video.
What determines the volume of liquid displaced by a submerged object? (Does it depend
on the object's mass, its volume, or its depth?)
ii.
PREDICT: How would the volumes of liquids displaced compare if you submerged one
aluminum block in water and an identical aluminum block in a liquid with a different
density than water (e.g oil)? Explain.
iii.
A vertical U-shaped tube is filled with a liquid of density ρ and the right end of the tube is sealed with a stopper, as shown in the left figure. Some of the liquid is removed from the left column with a syringe and the left column descends a distance d, while the right column remains as it was. Refer to the right figure.
1)
Three students are debating:
Student A: The pressure at level C must now be greater than the atmospheric pressure because liquid there is being pushed up against the stopper.
Student B: I think the pressure at level B must be the same as at level A, because they are at the same level. Both are at atmospheric pressure. So the pressure at level C must be lower than atmospheric, because pressure decreases as you ascend.
Student C: But the liquid is denser than air, so the pressure at C cannot be less than atmospheric pressure.
With which student(s) should you agree?

Looking at the figure below, a small parallelepiped of fluid centered on the point, explain why the pressure will be independent of x and z? And what will you need to know to determine the pressure in y?
