A plastic "boat" with a square cross section floats in a liquid. One by one, you place masses inside the boat and measure how far the boat extends below the surface. Your data are as follows:

Draw an appropriate graph of the data and, from the slope and intercept of the best-fit line, determine the mass of the boat and the density of the liquid.
A long horizontal tube has a square cross-section with sides of width .
A fluid moves through the tube with speed . The tube then changes to a circular cross-section with a diameter. What is the fluid's speed in the circular part of the tube?
