This is not a hypothecal question....I dont know the answer and would like to hear a rational discussion on the subject.
I buy minnows at my local bait shop by the pound...
They're $1.00 per pound....so you still can get SOMETHING for a buck....anyway....I digress...
They put a small galvanized bucket on the scale and fill it about 1/2 way up.
Then they zero out the scale.
Then they start throwing in the minnows....until the scale reads 1 Lb....
The minnows start swimming around in their new home...not knowing what is to befell them shortly....
The minnows are suspended in the water....they have a little air sac in their little bodies that gives them neutral bouyancy while they're swimming...
Question ....If I took the minnows out and weighed them by themselves...would I have 16 oz. of minnows....
Or more....
Or less.....
What say all of you?
