Question

a wooden cylinder with a height of h=.210m and a radius of R=.070m is floating upright and partially submerged into a tank of water to a depth if D=.130m. the density of water is 1000kg/m3. what is the density of this wood? Include a free body diagram. a wooden cylinder with a height of h=.210m and a radius of R=.070m is floating upright and partially submerged into a tank of water to a depth if D=.130m. the density of water is 1000kg/m3. what is the density of this wood? Include a free body diagram.

Explanation / Answer

Let the density of wood be d

Weight of wood block=buoyant force for equilibrium

pi*0.07²*0.21*d=pi*0.070²*0.13*1000

d=619 kg/m³
