Equilibrium of Forces, Moments & Flotation
Solution
A uniform solid cube material 10cm on each side of mass 700g is submerged in water. which of the following best described the behavior of the cube water?
A
the cube will melt after a period of time
B
the cube will float
C
the cube will sink in water
D
the cube will rest at an equilibrium position in water
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
For the uniform cube 10cm volume = 10 x 10 x 10 = 103 cm3
Mass = 700g
∴ density = (Mass)/Volume = (700)/100 = 0.7gcm-3
since the density is less than the density of water, the cube will float

Equilibrium of Forces, Moments & Flotation
Solution
If the relative density of gold is 19.2, the volume of 2.4kg of gold is?
A
8.00 x 10-3 m3
B
1.25 x 10-4 m3
C
1.92 x 10-4 m3
D
4.61 x 10-3 m3
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
R.D = (density of the subs)/density of water
19.2 =(P)/103; ∴P = 19.2 X 103
But Vol. = (Mass)/density = (2.4)/19.2 x 103
= 1.25 x 10-4 M3
