QUESTION 3: Figure 3 3m in 1m water surface A solid cuboid (1m x 1m x 3 m) has a mass of 1500 kg. If it is placed in water with its axis vertical as shown in Figure 3, determine: i) the centre of buoyancy. ii) if the cuboid would be stable. M
A cube 2.2 feet on an edge has its lower half of s.g. = 4.8 and upper half of s.g. = 2.9. It rests in a two-layer fluid, with lower sg. = 4.6 and upper s.g. = 3.95. Determine the height, h, of the top of the cube above the interface. See the Figure below. Note: Show step-by-step, and explain each step.

Only need help with the analysis on the stability of the mechanical equilibrium Suppose an iceberg is shaped as a solid circular cylinder of arbitrary diameter, such that it floats as illustrated in Figure 1. If the cylinder extends 2 m above the free surface of the ocean, determine the depth of the cylinder (b) below the free surface of the ocean. Consider that the density of the ocean water is Pa = 1024 kg/m3 and the density of the iceberg ice is Ph = 935 kg/m3. Additionally, make a descriptive analysis on the stability of the mechanical equilibrium state of the iceberg, if a normal force is applied on one edge of the top cap of the iceberg, consider cylinder radi less than 2 m and greater than 2 m. 2 m

The plastic block shown below measures l.5 m x/.S m x(.7 m and has a specific gravity of 0.38. The concrete block B (density = 2400 kg/m) is suspended from the corner of the plastic block by means of a cable and the plastic block is thus floating in the lake (T = 15°C) in the orientation shown. Determine the volume of the concrete block (units of liters) noting that it does not rest on the bottom of the lake, Neglect the weight and volume of the cable in your analysis. %3D %3D 1.7 m 0.5m Water Cable B
