Question

a) Determine the additional load (in kilograms) that can be supported by the bathy sphere so that the cylinder is fully submerged as shown. Assume density of sea water as 1024 kg/m^3. Neglect metal thickness and cable support

A bathy sphere is a spherical steel vessel for use in undersea observation and
suspended by a cable from a boat. In this situation, it is supported by a cylindrical
tank as shown. The weight of the bathy sphere is 6800 kgs when empty and has
a diameter of 1.8m. The cylindrical tank is 3m in diameter, 6 m long, with a mass
of 4500 kgs (when empty) and is filled halfway with oil of specific gravity 0.70.
