It is estimated that 93 percent of an iceberg’s volume is below the surface, while only 7 percent is visible above the surface. For seawater with a density of 1025 kg/m3, estimate the density of the iceberg.

Answer:

953.25kg/m3

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent of iceberg volume submerged =
(iceberg density)/(water density)


(iceberg density)/(1025) = 0.93\\iceberg density = 1025 x 0.83\\iceberg density = 953.25kg/m^(3)
