A barge floating in fresh water (p=1000 kg/m3) is shaped like a hollow rectangular prism with base area A=450 m2 and height H=2.0 m. When empty the bottom of the barge is located H0=0.55 m below the surface of the water. When fully loaded with coal the bottom of the barge is located H1 = 1.4 m below the surfacePart (a) Find the mass of the coal in kilograms. Part (b) How far would the barge be submerged (in meters) if...
This and the following question relate to the same situation: A raft is 4.2 m wide and 6.5 m long and it floats on water (density of water = 1000 kg/m3). When a horse is loaded onto the raft, it sinks an additional 0.027 m deeper into the water. What is the weight of the horse? (a) 7200 N (b) 1400 N (c) 2400 N (d) 9500 N (e) 5700 N QUESTION 16* What if the same horse were put on the same raft floating...
Example 1.4: The barge sketched below has a rectangular planform (26.7 m long, 10 m wide) and is 3 m deep. Its weight is W4450 kN, and G is located 4 m above the bottom of the barge as sketched. i) Find the metacentric height for a rotation about the longitudinal axis and determine whether the barge is stable. ii) Determine the restoring moment if the barge is rotated by an angle A0-10% 1 3 m 26.7 m

A board that is 20.0 cm wide, 5.00 cm thick, and 3.00 m long has a density 379 kg/m3. The board is floating partially submerged in water of density 1000 kg/m3. What fraction of the volume of the board is above the surface of the water? 0.379 0.200 zero 0.621 The answer depends on which edge of the board is vertical. A 3.1-kg solid sphere, made of metal whose density is 2500 kg/m3, is suspended by a cord. When the...

Question (1) A cubic Aluminum container (RD = 2.7) has a side length of 1 m and thickness of 1 cm and is floating inside a water tank. The container is empty and open from the top (i.e.: has only 4 sides and one base). Assuming the density of water is 1000 kg/m", determine: A. Height of the container floating above water. B. Volume of water we can pour into the container before it sinks. If the empty container is...

What volume (m3 ) does 1.75 kg of carbon dioxide occupy at standard temperature and pressure? 2.What mass of water (in kg) can be contained in a box whose dimensions are 225 mm by 225 mm by 401 mm? (Density of water = 1000 kg/m^3) 3.How much force (N) does the atmosphere exert on one side of a vertical wall 1.22 m high and 2.44 m...
A U-tube contains liquid of unknown density. An oil of density
770 kg/m³ is poured into one arm of the tube until the oil column
is 13.5 cm high. The oil-air interface is then 4.5 cm above the
liquid level in the other arm of the U-tube. Find the density of
the liquid.
