yes, we are allowed to simplify. I think my professor just wants us to prove that the specific gravity of the wine can be determined by the displacement of the cylinder. the density in my equation is the density of the fluid.
Thanks!
simple harmonic motion and specific gravity. PLEASE HELP!
The problem I need help with is this: In his lecture, Dr. Dyson argued that one could determine the specific gravity of a wine in the absence of a hydrometer. To demonstrate this he constructed a 100g weighted cylinder of Length (L) and...
