A 20 kg solid block of Aluminum (ρAl = 2.70 g/cc) is placed in a beaker of water filled to the brim. Some water overflows. The same is done in another beaker with a 20 kg solid block of lead (ρlead = 11.3 g/cc). Does the block of lead displace more, less, or the same amount of water as the aluminum block?
More
Same amount.
Less
