Compare the levels of the boats in diagram 7 and the volumes of water displaced by
the boat. Relating the mass of the boat with its load, the volume of water displaced
and the density of the water, deduce a relevant physics concept.
a) The boat _________ more in the river than in the sea.
c) The _________ of the boat and its load is the same when it is in the
sea and in the river.
Diagram 8
Explain how you would design a hydrometer that can determine a wide range
of densities of liquid, using the idea of the working principle of hydrometer in diagram
8A and diagram 8B. Draw a diagram that shows the design of your hydrometer and in
your explanation. Emphasized the following aspects:
- the stability of the hydrometer,
- the sensitivity of the hydrometer,
- the ability to measure a wide range of densities of liquids,
- the calibration of the hydrometer.
14
a) Draw a correct design of the hydrometer.
b) Put ___________ balls in the glass bulb, to ensure the hydrometer is upright.
d) Use a suitable big bulb and a ________ stem. So that the hydrometer
does not sink fully in low density liquid.
e) __________ the hydrometer in a paraffin oil / alcohol. The scale and the
level of liquid at the stem will show the density of paraffin oil / alcohol. This is
to make calibration for liquid of low density.
