Now Barry and Kachina try a homework problem.

A cube of iron and a cube of wood, each having a volume of V = 1.45 multiply.gif 10-4 m3, are each placed in a large beaker of water. The density of the wood is ρwood = 3.73 multiply.gif 102 kg/m3 and the density of the iron is ρiron = 7.86 multiply.gif 103 kg/m3. Calculate the buoyant force on each. (The cube of wood is allowed to float at the surface.)
