For a physics experiment, a solid cube is suspended from a spring scale. The gravitational force exerted on the cube is 0.714 N as measured when the object is suspended from a spring scale. When the suspended cube is submerged in water (p 1000 kg/m³), the scale reads 0.450 N. Scale Determine the buoyant force acting on the cube based upon the force measurements.
