A 10.0-pound ball of radius of 260 cm is thrown into seawater (density 1029 kg/m3).

             (d) If the ball floats on seawater, what percentage fraction of the ball’s volume is below the water surface?            

              (e) What is the maximum diameter a ball with m = 10.0 pound so that it does not float on water but sinks to the ground?

Density of water =1000kg/m^3 Conversion: 1000L =1m^3 A princess's ball falls down a well. The density of the well water is a constant 1000 kg/m3. The ball has a 10 cm diameter. a. If the ball sinks, what is the buoyant force on the ball? b. If the ball floats, with half of it in and half out of the water, what is its density? c. If the ball weighs 350g, does it float or sink?

What is the density (in kg/m3) of a woman who floats in freshwater with 4.32% of her volume above the surface? (This could be measured by placing her in a tank with marks on the side to measure how much water she displaces when floating and when held under water.) (Give your answer to at least three significant figures.) What percent of her volume is above the surface when she floats in seawater?

A block of wood (density 713 kg/m3) of length L = 50.0 cm, width W = 40.0 cm, and thickness H = 30.0 cm floats in water (density 1.000 × 103 kg/m3). What is the volume percentage of the wood that is above water? If the wood is set to oscillate, what is its frequency? How much can the wood carry without sinking?

A diver is located 63 m below the surface of the ocean (the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m^3). To raise a treasure chest that she discovered, the diver inflates a plastic, spherical buoy with her compressed air tanks. The radius of the inflated buoy is 0.41 m. If the treasure has a mass of 215 kg, what is the acceleration of the buoy and the treasure chest when they are tethered together and released? The chest is 22 cm...
