In the process of loading a ship, a shipping container gets dropped into the water and sinks to the bottom of the harbor. Salvage experts plan to recover the container by attaching a spherical balloon to the container and inflating it with air pumped down from the surface. The dimensions of the container are 5.00 m long, 2.35 m wide, and 3.20 m high. As the crew pumps air into the balloon, its spherical shape increases and when the radius is 1.10 m, the shipping container just begins to rise toward the surface. Determine the mass of the container. You may ignore the weight of the balloon and the air in the balloon. The density of seawater is 1027 kg/m³. 5725.525 x

OSU has been given a large model of the solar system which consists of hollow Styrofoam spheres of different sizes representing the Sun and planets. The planets are all connected to the center of the sun by means of steel rods of varying lengths and at varying angles relative to the x-axis as shown above. The steel rods are all 0.5 cm in diameter and are made of steel having a density of 7.88 g/cm3. We’d like to suspend the model from it’s center of mass, but it doesn’t look like the center of mass coincides with the position of the Sun. Find the center of mass of the model (direction and angle) relative to the Sun in the center of the model. The Styrofoam spheres are so much lighter in comparison to the rods, that their mass can be neglected. Hint: calculate the center of mass for the x and y dimensions separately, then combine them to get the final answer

(Use g = 10 m/s^2.) Compared to the pressure at heart height, the pressure 10 cm above is: Group of answer choices 100 P higher 1000 P lower 10 P higher 1000 P higher 100 P lower
A lost shipping container is found resting on the ocean floor and completely submerged. The container is 6.4 m long, 2.4 m wide, and 2.9 m high. Salvage experts attach a spherical balloon to the top of the container and inflate it with air pumped down from the surface.. When the balloon's radius is 1.3 m, the shipping container just begins to rise towards the surface. What is the mass of the container? Ignore the mass of the balloon and the air within it. Do not neglect the buoyant force exerted on the shipping container by the water. The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m³. Number Units
