A ball of mass 400 grams is immersed in water. The ball is suspended in the water by a rubber band chain which exerts a tension force of 2.5 Newtons on the ball.
•
What is the weight of the ball?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
weight = .4 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3.92 N

•
What is the buoyant force on the ball?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
2.5 N - 3.92 N + F_buoy = 0

•
What therefore must be its volume?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
V = 1.42 N / (9800 N/m^3) = .000145 m^3

•
What is its density?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
density = mass / volume = 400 grams / (145 cm^3) = 2.8 grams / cm^3
