A cylindrical cup is 8 cm in diameter and 20 cm tall and is filled halfway with saltwater. The density of the saltwater is 1.1 g/cm^3.
A spherical ball has a diameter of 4 cm and a mass of 40g. How much does the level of the water rise when the ball is dropped into the cup?

The volume of the ball, should amount to the water displaced by it whatever that may be
