A student wants to determine the density of an unknown liquid. They have a block of known density \( \rho_b \) and volume \( V \). The block hangs from a spring scale, fully submerged in the liquid and not touching the bottom. The scale reads a tension \( T \). Which formula should the student use to find the liquid density \( \rho_L \)?
