Problem

A cubical block of ice (density 900 kg/m3900\,\text{kg/m}^{3}) is floating in water (density 1000 kg/m31000\,\text{kg/m}^{3}). A small stone of mass 0.5 kg0.5\,\text{kg} is placed on top of the ice block. If the ice block just fully sinks (top surface flush with water level), calculate the volume of the ice block.
