A lost shipping container is found resting on the ocean floor
and completely submerged. The container is 6.4 m long, 2.4 m wide,
and 2.5 m high. Salvage experts attach a spherical balloon to the
top of the container and inflate it with air pumped down from the
surface. When the balloon's radius is 1.7 m, the shipping container
just begins to rise towards the surface. What is the mass of the
container? Ignore the mass of the balloon and the air within it. Do
not neglect the buoyant force exerted on the shipping
container by the water. The density of seawater is 1025
kg/m3.

In the process of loading a ship, a shipping container gets dropped into the water and sinks to the bottom of the harbor. Salvage experts plan to recover the container by attaching a spherical balloon to the container and inflating it with air pumped down from the surface. The dimensions of the container are 6.00 m long, 2.10 m wide, and 3.20 m high. As the crew pumps air into the balloon, its spherical shape increases and when the radius...
A diver is located 63 m below the surface of the ocean (the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3). To raise a treasure chest that she discovered, the diver inflates a plastic, spherical buoy with her compressed air tanks. The radius of the buoy is inflated to 0.41 m. If the treasure has a mass of 215 kg, what is the acceleration of the buoy and the treasure chest when they are tethered together and released? The chest is 22...
A diver is located 63 m below the surface of the ocean (the density of seawater is 1.025 kg/m3). To raise a treasure chest that she discovered, the diver inflates a plastic, spherical buoy with her compressed air tanks. The radius of the buoy is inflated to 0.41 m.
