A solid titanium sphere of radius 0.350 m has a density 4500 kg/m. It is held suspended completely underwater

A solid titanium sphere of radius 0.350 m has a density 4500 kg/m. It is held suspended completely underwater by a cable. What is the tension in the cable? Suppose we wish to make a neutrally buoyant hollow sphere (i.e. it will neither sink nor rise) out of titanium. If the sphere has an outer radius of 0.350 m, what must be its inner radius?
