Hi Yankee,

At risk of being ostentatious, pedantic, elitist, and/or haughty, I will say the I probably should have used the term "apparent weight" for the block in the water. However, since you're an engineer, and I'm a former prep school Physics and Chemistry teacher, I suspect we know what the other means!
