Question
Two air-filled spherical buoys are tethered by a
single cable, as shown in Figure Q.2. The cable
passes through two frictionless anchor rings, so
that the buoys are in a state of equilibrium within
a two-layer liquid reservoir (as shown). The top
and bottom layers of the liquid have densities pt
and Pb, respectively. Buoy 1 has radius R1, and
buoy 2 has radius R2. You should ignore the
weight of the buoys (which are negligible com-
pared to magnitude of the buoyancy forces act-
ing), and you should ignore the weight and buoy-
ancy of the cable.
