A right cylindrical container of diameter D (meter) and H (meter) high is filled with water Z (meter) deep. A piece of timber, having a cross-sectional dimension b xt (in mm) and L (meter) long is freely allowed to submerge and float in a vertical position inside the container. The portion of the wood above the water surface is observed to be 2/3 the length of the timber. the following data, evaluate the specific weight of the timber, in kN/m. D= 1.2m b = 350mm H= 4.5 m t = 250mm Z= 3.0m L=3,0m а. 3.35 b. 3.75 с. 3.27 d. 3.44
