A block of wood, with density 780.0 kg/m^3, has a cubic shape with sides 0.272 m long. A cord of negligible mass is used to tie a piece of lead to the bottom of the wood. The lead pulls the wood into the water until it is just completely covered with water. What is the mass of the lead? Density of water is 1.00 × 103 kg/m^3 and density of lead is 11.3 × 103 kg/m^3.
