Asked by George
A metal sphere is found floating in a pool. The sphere is 1m in diameter. If it is half submerged determine the weight of the sphere. You may assume the following:
g=10N/kg
density of Water = 1000kg/m^3
Vsphere = 4/3pir^3
I get 13.3 as my final answer, but there is no answer in this book to tell me if I am correct or not >>
