Transcribed Image Text:

A block of wood with a cross-sectional area of 25-cm is fully submerged in a container of water as result of a force (Fadd = 10-N) acting on its top surface. The buoyant force acting on the block while fully submerged equals 16.0 Newtons. Draw a free-body diagram on the block and determine; a. The block's mass. b. The block's density A = 25 cm. c. If Fadd is removed, a portion of the block will rise above the surface. Determine the depth of the submerged portion of the block. (Hint: Draw a new free body diagram and calculate the new value for the buoyant force first) F add H A block of wood with a cross-sectional area of 25-cm is fully submerged in a container of water as result of a force (Fadd = 10-N) acting on its top surface.
