For a submarine to stay submerged, it must be neutrally buoyant, which means it is maintaining a careful balance between its weight and the buoyant force of water pushing it toward the surface. If a submarine has an enclosed volume of 327.781 m3, how much must it weigh to stay submerged? (Use 1000 kg/m^3 for the density of water.)

A 20.2 kg copper mass rests on the bottom of a pool. (The density of copper is 8.92 ✕ 103 kg/m3 and the density of water is 1.00 ✕ 103 kg/m3.) HINT Archimedes' principle states, "Any object completely or partially submerged in a fluid is buoyed up by a force with magnitude equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object." Click the hint button again to remove this hint. (a) What is the volume of the copper...

A sea lion (with lungs empty) is put on a scale when it is completely submerged in water. The scale reads the “apparent weight force” of the sea lion in water as 62.01-N. The sea lion has a mass of 210.0-kg. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3. Determine the density of the sea lion. Select one: a. 1000 kg/m3 b. 419 kg/m3 c. 1029 kg/m3 d. 1419 kg/m3

1. Three objects have the same volume, one spherical, one rectangular, and the other cylindrical. If you put these 3 objects under water, how do their buoyant upward forces compare? A. According to Archimedes’ Principle, they are all subject to the same amount of buoyant forces because they have the same volume B. The cylindrical object gets the most buoyant force because it has a longer shape C. The rectangular object gets the most buoyant force because of its flat...
