A pontoon boat floats on two cylindrical pontoons (assume the ends are flat). Each pontoon is 6m long. The mass of the boat, pontoons, and gear (without any passengers) is 1950 kg. If exactly half of the pontoon volume was submerged without any passengers on the boat, what is the maximum volume of water that can be displaced to support the weight of passengers? The density of freshwater is 1000 kg/m³ . End view of pontoons: Waterline Pontoon D/2 is submerged

A plane is fitted with pontoons for operation on lakes. As it taxies out for take-off, the plane itself weighs 10670 Newtons (2849lbs), it has 40 gallons of gasoline in its tanks, and the pilot and passenger together weigh 1513 Newtons (340 lbs). One gallon of gasoline weighs 25 Newtons (5.67lbs). What is buoyant force on the plane when it floats in a body of water? Take the mass density of water to be 1000 kg/m3 and the acceleration due to gravity as 9.8 m/s2
Question 3 3.1 A rectangular pontoon has a mass of 120 x 103 kg and floats in sea water, see figure 3.The pontoon has a length of 18m and width of 7.5m.The vertical sides of the pontoon are 2.5m high.The mass density of sea water is 1 025 kg/m3.Find the metacentric height of the pontoon and specify whether it floats stable in this position.
(a) A rectangular, fully enclosed tank 2.4m long, 1.4m wide and 0.8m high is constructed of sheet metal weighing 443.6 kg-f (force). The tank floats in sea water of density 1025kg/m³ with its 0.8m sides vertical. If the centre of gravity is at the geometric centre of the vessel, calculate the metacentric height and comment on the stability of the tank. (b) A hydrometer is an instrument used for measuring the relative density of liquids based on the concept of buoyancy. A particular hydrometer is 80 cm in length. When placed in pure water, 50cm of the hydrometer is submerged and it reads 1.000 as shown in Figure 1. i) Calculate the density of the hydrometer? ii) When placed in Alcohol, 65 cm of the hydrometer is submerged beneath the alcohol.
