The cylinder shown in Figure made from a uniform material. What is its specific weight? If the cylinder is placed in fresh water at 95C, how much of its height would be above the surface?

A ship has a mass of 292 Mg. Compute the volume of sea-water it will displace when floating. An iceberg has a specific weight of 8.72 kN/m3. What portion of its volume is above the surface when in seawater?

A hydrometer is a device for indicating the specific gravity of liquids. Figure shows the design for a hydrometer in which the bottom part is a hollow cylinder with a 1.00-in diameter, and the top is a tube with a 0.25-in diameter. The empty hydrometer weighs 0.020 lb. What weight of steel balls should be

A closed, hollow, empty drum has a diameter of 24.0 in, a length of 48.0 in, and a weight of 70.0 lb. Will it float stably if placed upright in water? Figure 5.30 shows a river scow used to carry bulk materials. Assume that the scow’s center of gravity is at its centroid and that

A cylindrical block of wood is 1.00 m in diameter and 1.00 m long and has a specific weight of 8.00 kN/m3. Will it float in a stable manner in water with its axis vertical? A container for an emergency beacon is a rectangular shape 30.0 in wide, 40.0 in long, and 22.0 in high.

A block of wood with a specific weight of 32 lb/ft3 is 6 by 6 by 12 in. If it is placed in oil (sg=0.90) with the 6 by 12-in surface parallel to the surface of the oil, would it be stable? A barge is 60 ft long, 20 ft wide, and 8 ft deep.

A golf club head is made from aluminum having a specific weight of 0.100 lb/in3. In air it weighs 0.500 lb. What would be its apparent weight when suspended in cool water? Wetsuits are prohibited in some triathlons due to the added buoyancy they provide the swimmer, essentially holding a greater portion of the body
