Question:
The float in a toilet tank is a sphere of radius R and is made of a material with density p. An upward buoyant force F is required to shut the ballcock valve. The density of water is designated pw. Develop an expression for x, the fraction of the float submerged, in terms of R, p, F, g, and pw.
