A barge has dimensions of length, width, and height equal to 10 m, 6 m, and 4 m, respectively. A pride of lions, all with mass of 230 kg, are investigating the enticing odor of sardine oil that is on the floor of the barge, possibly from the shoes of an unsuspecting zookeeper. The barge is floating in fresh water, which has a density of 1000 kg/m3. When the barge is empty, it floats with 80% of its volume submerged....
