Question 277395: While rummaging in his great aunt's attic, Bernard found a small figurine that he believed to be made out of silver. To test his guess, he looked up the density of silver in his chemistry book and found that it was 10.5 g/cm^3. He found that the figure weighed 149 grams. To determine its volume, he dropped it into a cylindrical glass of water. If the diameter of the glass was 6 centimeters, and the figurine was pure silver, by how much should the water level in the glass rise?

:
Find the vol:
V =
V = 14.19 cu/cm
:
Find the height (h) that the water level was raised, in the cylindrical glass
:
Radius of the glass = 3cm

h =
h = .5 cm, the water should rise
