- A cube, 300mm on each side is to be held in equilibrium under water by attaching a lightweight foam buoy to it. The specific weight of the cube and foam are 20kN/m3 and 0.81kN/m3, respectively. Evaluate the minimum volume of the foam required, in m3. Neglect the attachments in the calculations.arrow_forwardSpecific weight seawater = 64.0 lb/ft^3arrow_forwardA 100 kg block is resting on a smooth inclined surface.

- 1. In calibrating a 10-mL pipet, a measured volume of water was transferred to a tared flask and weighed, yielding a mass of 9.9814 g. (a) Calculate, with and without correcting for buoyancy, the volume of water delivered by the pipet. Assume that the density of water is 0.99707 g/cm3 and that the density of the weights is 8.40 g/cm3. (b) What are the absolute and relative errors introduced by failing to account for the effect of buoyancy? Is this a significant source of determinate error for the calibration of a pipet? Explain. 2. Repeat the questions in problem 1 for the case when a mass of 0.2500 g is measured for a solid that has a density of 2.50 g/cm3. 3. Is the failure to correct for buoyancy a constant or proportional source of determinate error?arrow_forwardThe Menard-type pressuremeter consists of the probe.
