A cube of water ice (r = 0.917  103 kg/m3) is placed in mercury (r = 13.6  103 kg/m3), which is liquid at 0 Celsius. If we ignore any possible melting of the ice cube and problems with the surface tension of mercury, the fraction of the ice cube that floats above the surface of the mercury is
 a. 0.067 4.
  b. 0.073 5.
  c. 0.926.
  d. 0.933.
  e. 1.00.
