A hollow container in the shape of a truncated cone floats in oil (d.r.=0.9), with half of its total height submerged, when attached to a block of weight 150 Kg. as shown in the figure. Determine: A) The weight of the prism in Kg B) If the rope that joins the cone to the block is cut of 150 kg, will the container float or sink?
