Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 87P
You are in the Bermuda Triangle when you see a bubble plume eruption (a large mass of air bubbles, similar to foam) off to the side of the boat. Do you want to head toward it and be part of the action? What is the effective density of the water and air bubbles in the drawing on the right that will cause the boat to sink? Your boat is 10 ft long, and weight is the same in both cases.
