3. Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) 3 A humpback whale weighs about 5.4 x 105 N. Determine the buoyant force required to support the whale in its natural habitat when it is completely submerged. Assume the density of seawater to be 1030 kg/m³ and the density of the whale is approximately equal to the density of water (1000 kg/m³).
