A block of aluminum with a volume of 10-cm^3 is placed in a beaker of water filled to the brim.?

Question

Water overflows. The same is done in another beaker with a 10-cm^3 block of lead. Does the lead displace more, less, or the same amount of water?

Answer 1

Same

Assuming that both blocks are completely submerged, they will both displace exactly the same volume of water equal to their own volume of 10 cm^3

Answer 2

The density of lead is higher than alnuminum. The volume would be less because of the same mass which will displace less water.
