A large block has dimensions of length = 0.15 m, width = 0.2 m, and depth = 0.5 m. It has a mass of 117 kg. The volume of a block, Vblock = (length) x (width) x (depth). (a) Using the table shown, what is the block made of? (b) If completely under water, what is the buoyant force acting on the block?
