Transcribed Image Text:**Question 4:**
A spherical object of volume \(1 \, \text{m}^3\) floats on water (\(\gamma_{\text{water}} = 9810 \, \text{N/m}^3\)). Find the submerged volume (\(V'\)) of the object if the specific weight of the spherical object is (\(\gamma_{\text{sphere}} = 7500 \, \text{N/m}^3\)).
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram to the right illustrates a sphere partially submerged in water. A horizontal dashed line represents the water surface. The sphere is cross-hatched to indicate its volume, and a vertical arrow labeled "Water" indicates the direction of the buoyant force.
