- A 2.8 kg rock whose density is 4800 kg/m^3 is suspended by a string such that half of the rock's volume is under water. What is the tension in the string?A stone was hung from a light rope. When the stones are in the air,the rope tension is 39.2 N. When the rock is completely submerged in water, it stressesthe rope is 28.4 N. When the rock is completely submerged in a certain liquid,the tension in the rope is 21.5 N. What is the density of the rock and liquid?a) What volume must a (450 kg) cube have in order to float in water?b) Suppose now that the cube from part (a) has 1/3 of the volume needed to float (so it sinks into the ocean). What is the total force on the sides of the cube at a depth of (260 m) below the ocean surface? (Cubes have 6 equal-area sides)

- A 1.00-kg beaker containing 1.63 kg of oil (density = 916 kg/m3) rests on a scale. A 1.94-kg block of iron is suspended from a spring scale and is completely submerged in the oil (see figure below). Find the equilibrium readings of both scales. top scale N bottom scale NA steel beam is suspended completely under water by a cable that is attached to one end of the beam, so it hangs vertically. Another identical beam is also suspended completely under water, but by a cable that is attached to the center of the beam, so it hangs horizontally. Which beam, if either, experiences the greater buoyant force? Neglect any change in water density with depth. O The beam that hangs vertically experiences the greater buoyant force. O The beam that hangs horizontally experiences the greater buoyant force. O They experience the same buoyant force.A hollow plastic sphere is held below the surface of a freshwater lake by a cord anchored to the bottom of the lake.
