PROBLEM # 2
A 2-in. diameter cylinder is floating vertically in seawater with 75% of its volume submerged. If
the specific gravity of seawater is 1.03, estimate the density of the cylinder in kg/m.
1.When a double-bottom tank is full of fresh water it holds 120 tonnes.Find how many
tonnes of ol of relative density 0.84 it will hold.
2. A tank measures 20 m. X 24m X 10.5 m. and contains oil of relative density 0.84.Find the
mass of oll it contains when the ullage is 2.bm. (Ulage is the distance from the surface of
the liquid in the tank to the top of the tank)
