The apparent weight of body fully immersed in water is 30 newton and it's weight in air is 96 newton. Calculate the volume of the body.(g=10meter per second and density of water is 100kilogram meter cube)

Respuesta :

Point of correction

Density of water is [tex]1000 Kg/m^{3}[/tex] not 100 as provided, it may be typo

Answer:

[tex]0.0066 m^{3}[/tex]

Explanation:

Buoyant force of water (Weight difference) is 96-30=66 N

Buoyancy force=[tex]\rho_w g v[/tex] where [tex]\rho_w[/tex] is the density of water, g is acceleration due to gravity whose value is provided as [tex]10 m/s^{2}[/tex] and v is the volume of the body

hence substituting 66 for buoyancy force, [tex]1000 Kg/m^{3}[/tex] for density of water and finding the unknown value of volume, v

66=1000*10*v

[tex]v=0.0066 m^{3}[/tex]
