Determine the volume of the ring/tube using Archimedes' Principle and compare your results to the volume of the ring/tube calculated from physical measurements. Do not tie the thread directly to the balance; use the paper clip as a hook. Assume that the density of the water is 1.0 g/cm. Neatly show all work and provide all necessary data. If the TA cannot duplicate your results from the data that you provide, your score will be drastically reduced.
Volume of ring/tube via Archimedes' Principle (A): ___________
