Current Attempt in ProgressA lost shipping container is found resting on the ocean floor and completely submerged. The container is6.3 m long, 2.8 m wide, and 2.8 m high. Salvage experts attach a spherical balloon to the top of thecontainer and inflate it with air pumped down from the surface. When the balloon's radius is 1.5 m, theshipping container just begins to rise towards the surface. What is the mass of the container? Ignore themass of the balloon and the air within it. Do not neglect the buoyant force exerted on the shippingcontainer by the water. The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m³.

Question: Each of the four silos seen in the figure has an empty weight of 30MN, and can hold up to 105 MN of grain. The weight of the mat is 55 MN. Since each silo is filled independently, the resultant load imposed on the mat does not necessarily act through the centroid. Evaluate the various loading conditions and determine whether centrally loaded, one-way eccentric loaded, and two-way eccentric loading requirements will be met. If these requirements are not met, determine the minimum mat width, B, needed to satisfy these requirements. Allowable bearing capacity is given as qa=265kPa). 50m 12,5m Plan 50m 12,5m Profile Mat foundation

Neglect the weight of the drum in the following problem. A sealed cylindrical drum has a diameter of 8 feet and a length of 14 feet. The drum is filled exactly half-full of a liquid having a density of 92 pound-mass per cubic foot. It is resting on its side at the bottom of a 10-foot deep drainage channel that is empty. Suppose a flash flood suddenly raises the water level in the channel to a depth of 10 feet. Determine if the drum will float. The density of water is 62 pound-mass per cubic foot. The mass of the fluid is Ib,m- (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
