3) A chunk of ice (frozen water) floats in water as shown. The total volume of ice is:Vice = V, + V2 where V, is above the water surface and

V2 is below the water surface.The specific gravity of ice is: Sice = Yice/YH20. Derive an expression for the fraction of ice that remains above the water, V,Nice, in terms of Sice.
