105.00 L 5.00 kg 0.00 N Fluid Oil Water Weight of 5.00 kg wood block = 49 N Step 2: Place the wood block in the water and notice that it floats. When the wood block rests on the ground, the downward gravitational force is balanced by an upward normal (“contact") force. When floating, the gravitational force is still there, but the normal (contact") force is not. The force exerted by the fluid is the buoyant force (B). When floating,...
IP A block of wood floats on water. A layer of oil is now poured on top of the water to a depth that more than covers the block, as shown in the figure(Figure 1). If 93 % of the wood is submerged in water before the oil is added, find the fraction submerged when oil with a density of 865 kg/m3 covers the block. Express your answer using two significant figures.
2. 95% of a wood block is submerged in water (density= 1000 kg/m). A layer of oil with a density of 880 kg/m' is now poured on top, to a depth that more than covers the block, as shown. Find the resulting new volume fraction submerged in water, V(in water) / V(block). Hints: (i) You get two buoyant forces - one for each liquid; Also note that (ii) volume, V(block) = V(in water) + V(in oil). d=880 kg/m² V =...
A cube of wood 20cm on each side floats in water so that 7cm is above the surface of the water and 13cm is below. a)What is the density of the wood? ( You must justify your answer) b) How much force would have to be exerted on the wood to submerge it? c) what volume of lead mass has to be placed on top of the block of wood so that it will just be totally submerged? d)Suppose a...
4. A block of birch wood floats in oil with 88.4% of its volume submerged. What is the density of the oil? The density of the birch is 0.69 g/cm.
A cube of wood having an edge dimension of 22.1 cm and a density of 651 kg/m^3 floats on water. What is the distance from the horizontal top surface of the cube to the water level? If a block is floating, the buoyant force must equal the weight of the block cm What mass of lead should be placed on the cube so that the top of the cube will be just level with the water surface? The block is...
A wooden block of volume 5.26 times 10^-4 m^3 floats in water, and a small steel object of mass m is placed on top of the block. When m = 0.400 kg, the system is in equilibrium and the top of the wooden block is at the level of the water. (Take the density of steel to be 8 g/cm^3.) (a) What is the density of the wood? kg/m^3 (b) What happens to the block when the steel object is...
BOUYANCY A wooden block with density 650kg/m3 floats in water. What is the maximum mass that can be added to the top of the block so that the block is just submerged at the water surface? (aj (a) The added mass is 0.35 times the mass of the block. (1) (b) The added mass is 0.65 times the mass of the block. (c) (c) The added mass is 0.35 times the mass of the volume of water displaced by the...
A cube of wood having an edge dimension of 18.1 cm and a density of 655 kg/m floats on water. (a) What is the distance from the horizontal top surface of the cube to the water level? This is the length of the edge of the wood block that lies below the surface. cm (b) What mass of lead should be placed on the cube so that the top of the cube will be just level with the water surface?...
Oil having a density of 926 kg/m3 floats on water. A rectangular block of wood 3.60 cm high and with a density of 960 kg/m3 floats partly in the oil and partly in the water. The oil completely covers the block. How far below the interface between the two liquids is the bottom of the block?
