When Dr. Hewitt immerses an object in water the second time and catches the water that is displaced by the object, how does the weight lost by the object compare to the weight of the water displaced?

The weight loss of object is equal to the weight of water displaced.

Explanation:

- When the object is immersed the force of Buoyancy acts against the weight and reducing the scale weight.

- The amount of Buoyancy Force is proportional to the fraction of Volume of object immersed in water; hence, the same amount is spilled/lost.

- The amount of water is proportional to the volume of object of fraction of object immersed in water will lead to the same fraction of water displaced and caught by Dr. Hewitt.
