Ans: The area of the block facing down is 0.34 x 0.43 = 0.1462 m2
Given that the block is submerged by a heigh 0.053 m
So, the volume of the block submerged is 0.1462 x 0.053 = 0.0077486 m3
Therefore, the mass of the water displaced is 0.0077486 x 1000 = 7.7486 kg
From Bouyancy law, the mass of the piece of wood is 7.7486 kg.

A block of wood of mass 2kg floats in water, and it is noted
that volume is 3/4 is submerged. density of water 1000
kg/m3.
a) What is the buoyant force of the block? hint:
V is volume and g is 9.81 m/s2.
b) What is the density of the block?
A 10 cm cubical block of wood floats at the interface between oil and water with its lower surface 1.5 cm below the interface. The density of the oil is 900 kg m 3 . The oil layer and the water layer are both 10 cm tall. a. What is the gauge pressure at the upper face of the block? b. What is the gauge pressure at the lower face of the block? c. What are the mass and density...
A cubical block of wood, 10.7 cm on a side, floats at the interface between oil and water with its lower surface 2.10 cm below the interface (the figure ). The densityof the oil is 790 kg/m^3.a) What is the gauge pressure at the upper face of the block?? Pab)What is the gauge pressure at the lower face of the block?? Pac)What is the mass of the block?? kgd)What is the density of the block?? kg/m^3
Question 4: (12 points A wooden block of dimensions length 20.0 cm, width 10.0 cm and height 5.00 cm floats in water so that 2.00 cm is under water. A small chunk of aluminum (Pa = 2700 kq) is attached by a thin string to the bottom of the block so that the block is just submerged in the water. c. What is the weight of the aluminum piece added? (6 points)
Please don't forget Part B.
3. A wooden cube floats on water as shown in the figure. A small force is applied from the top pushing it down by a distance xo and then released. The block is observed to bob up and down. After 100 bobs, the amplitude dies down to 10% of the initial displacement xo Let A- Area of face, h- submerged depth and x-0 at the water surface (see Fig) wood block water a) Ignoring the...
1- A block slides along a frictionless surface at 2.4 m/s. A second 3.5-kg block, sliding at a faster 7.5 m/s, collides with the first from behind and sticks to it. The final velocity of the combined blocks is 4.6 m/s. What was the mass of the first block? 2-A 15 g ball of clay traveling west at 4 m/s collides with a 50 g ball of clay traveling 30° north of east at 3.5 m/s. What is the speed...
