A small ferryboat is 25 m long and 10 m wide. When a container
is loaded on it, the ferryboat sinks an additional 5 cm. What is
the mass of the container (density of slated water = 1050 kg
/m3)?
A)13,125 kg
B)36,750 kg
C)175,980 kg
D)26,250 kg
A) 13125 kg
let m is the mass of the container.
the weight of the displaced water when container is loaded = m*g
rho_water*V_displaced water*g = m*g
==> m = rho_water*V
= 1050*25*10*0.05
= 13125 kg

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...
