What is the weight of a cubic meter of cork? Could you lift it?(For the density of cork, use 400kg/m3)
We fully submerge an irregular 3 kg lump of material in a certain fluid. The fluid that would have been in the space now occupied by the lump has a mass of 2 kg. (a) When we release the lump, does it move upward, move downward, or remain in place? (b) If we next fully submerge the lump in a less dense fluid and again release it, what does it do?
One of the National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenges for Engineering is Restore and Improve Urban Infrastructure. Infrastructure includes bridges and
roads, but it also includes water and sewer system, railroads, and power grids. In 2016, the state of Washington opened the SR 520 "floating" bridge. The bridge is
made of 77 floating concrete boxes anchored to the bed of the lake using 58 steel cables. Each cylindrical cable is 3 inches [in] thick, 1000 feet [ft] long, and made of
steel. Assume the specific gravity of steel is 7.9. What is the weight of one cable in units of pound-force [Ib]?

Do you have available the Hydrostatic experiment, in which it specifically addresses the thrust. On the topic of thrust, observe the alternatives and mark the correct one: A)Actual weight is the difference between the actual weight of a solid and the buoyancy suffered by it when submerged. B) Apparent weight is the difference between the real weight of a solid and the buoyancy suffered by it when submerged. C) The buoyant force depends on the density of the submerged solid. D)The buoyant force does not depend on the density of the fluid. E)The buoyant force has unit N and therefore depends on the density of the submerged solid.arrow_forward
