Question

PROBLEM 1: A concrete cube 0.5 m on
each side is to be held in equilibrium under
water by attaching a light foam buoy to it.
What is the minimum volume of the foam
buoy? The unit weights of the concrete
and the foam are 23.58 kN/m and 0.79
kN/m', respectively.

A scale reads 100 N when a piece of aluminum is hanging from it. What does it read when it is lowered so that the aluminum is submerged in water? The mass density of aluminum is 2700 kg/m^3. Be careful, you are given mass density instead of weight density, and we are using SI units.i need answer in problem sigfig
A solid block is suspended from a spring scale. If the reading on the scale when the block is completely immersed in water is 25.0 N, and the reading when it is completely immersed in alcohol of density 806 kg/m3 is 25.7 N, what are (a) the block’s volume and (b) its density?
A horizontal board of negligible thickness and area 2.0 m2 hangs from a spring scale that reads 80 N when a 4.0 m/s wind moves above the board. The air below the board is stationary. When the wind stops, the scale reads AnswerN. The density of air is 1.25 kg/m3 and treat the air as an ideal fluid I did not understand my class's explanation. can you please explain this?
