A frustum of a cone (SG=0.45), 6m high with 4m diameter at the bottom and 2m at the top floats in sea water with an SG=1.05. A 2m concrete (2400 kg/m³) weight is attached at the bottom of the frustum. Determine the following: a. weight "WFC" of the frustum of the cone in kN b. radius "R;" of the frustum in meters at the point of contact with the liquid surface c. buoyant force acting on the frustum of the cone considering the whole set-up d. draft of the frustum of the cone in meters
