A man of mass m=74.0 kg is holding his breath and floating, at rest, on the surface of a lake. While holding his breath, his density is p=994.0 kg.m^3. He exhales, which increases his density to 1030.0 kg/m^3 and so he begins to sink. The density of water is 1000.0 kg/m^3. a) when the man is floating at the surface of lake, what percent of his body's volume is above water? b) once the man exhales, what is the buoyancy...
