A diver with a wetsuit on (total mass = 60 kg) floats with 3% of
their volume above the water with their lungs empty.
What is the average density of the system of the diver and
wetsuit? I got 0.97??
The diver takes a deep breath and holds it, storing 6 L of air
(𝜌air = 1.225 kg/m3) in their
lungs. By how much does their mass increase?
What is the new density of the system?
How much of their volume now floats above the water?
