A cubical block of wood measuring 0.20 m
on each edge has a mass of 3.0 kg. It is
floating in water. A block of lead of the same
mass (3.0 kg) is placed on top of the wood.
To what depth “d” does the wood float?

A block of wood, with density 780.0 kg/m^3, has a cubic shape
with sides 0.272 m long. A cord of negligible mass is used to tie a
piece of lead to the bottom of the wood. The lead pulls the wood
into the water until it is just completely covered with water. What
is the mass of the lead? Density of water is 1.00 × 103 kg/m^3 and
density of lead is 11.3 × 103 kg/m^3.
