Question:
A floating body has a square cross section with side w as shown in the figure. The center of gravity is at the centroid of the cross section. Find the location of the water line, ℓ/w, where the body would be neutrally stable (GM = 0). If the body is floating in water, what would be the specific gravity of the body material?
