Sea on the Moon
Assume that the Moon has a sea with the same composition as Earth's (i.e., the same saltwater density). Calculate how deep a boat would sit in the lunar sea, given that it floats at a depth of 3.9 m on Earth. Assume that the Moon's gravitational acceleration is 6.5 times smaller than Earth's.
