Answer: 20 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Archimedes, the upward force exerted on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid the body displaces.
i.e. weight of the object = weight of the fluid displayed
Given: George put 25 mL of water into a graduated cylinder. After adding a solid object, the water level in the cylinder rose to 45 mL.
So, the volume of the object = New volume - Original volume
= 45 mL - 25 mL
= 20 mL
Hence, the volume of the object =20 mL
