The raft is made of solid square
Pinewood (density= 550 kg/m').
Determine whether the raft floats
in water (density = 1000 kg/m) and if
so, how much of the raft is beneath
the water surface.
Weight
of raft
0.30 m
Since the density of the raft
(pinewood) is less than that of
water, the raft foats.
Q: A force of 250 N is applied to a hydraulic piston that is
0.01 m in diameter. If the piston which supports the load
has a diameter of 0.10 m, approximately how much mas
can be lifted?
250 N
0.01 m
0.10 m
