...preponderate: for this is the same, as weighing them in different fluids. 11. The weight, which a body loses in a fluid, is to its whole weight, as the specific gravity of the fluid is to that of the body. Because the weight, which the body loses in the fluid, is the weight of the fluid... | |

...a cube of oak sink in common water ; each side of the cube being 1 foot, spec. grav. =s 925 ? Since the specific gravity of the fluid is to the specific gravity of the body, as the magnitude of the body to the magnitude of the part immersed, we have, 1000 : 925 :: 1728 : 1598.4... | |
