Question

Answer the following questions completely. Minimize rounding of rounding of numbers to obtain a more precise answer. Solution which is supported by a sketch must be labeled completely showing known and unknown quantities

 

The figure shows a metal hanging by a thin wire
from a floating wood block. The wood block has a
specific gravity Sb =0.25, a square base of 80 mm
x 80 mm and height of 15 mm. The metal has a
volume of 8000 mm^3. Using a unit weight of
water 9800 kN/m^3 and g=9.80 m/s^2, find the
tension in the thin wire in Newton. Write only the
number of your answer in three decimal places.
No need to write the unit Newton.
