Question

Please answer Question 1 and 2:

QUESTION 1 Four cars, each weighing 2,000 pounds (with passengers & freight) are loaded onto a 60 foot long by 18 foot wide, 5 foot tall vehicle barge. The barge weighs 3,400 pounds - unloaded (with equipment ready for voyage). How far, in inches, will the barge sink in the water (What is the total draft)? (Numerical value in inches only - NO units) QUESTION 2 The 4-inch by 6-inch timber has a unit weight of 38 #/ft5 and is held in a horizontal position by the concrete anchor. The length, L is 18 feet.
