The scale A reads 440 N when the sphere is hanging in air, and 330 N when the sphere is submerged in the fluid (but not touching the sides). The scale B reads 165 N when the sphere is hanging in the air and 275 N when the sphere is submerged in the fluid. You can assume the weight of the tank itself is negligible.
10 N A 790 kg m 200 N B N A 205


What is the mass of the sphere? What is the mass of the fluid in the tank?
What is the volume of the fluid in the tank?

When the sphere is hanging in the air.

what is the net force on the sphere?
