Float boya

A 0.5-meter spherical float is a location mark for a fishing boat anchor. It floats in salt water. Find the depth to which the float sinks if the material of which the float is made weighs 8 kilograms per cubic meter and saltwater weighs 1027 kg/m3.

Correct answer:

h =  0.0446 m

Step-by-step explanation:

R=0.5 m1 = m2 8   4/3   π R3 = 1027 / 3   π h2(4Rh) 8   4/3   π 0.53 = 1027 /3   π h2(4 0.5 h) 4.18879 = (2150.94  1075.47 h) h2 h1=0.04365570.0437 h2=0.04463040.0446 h3=1.999031.999  0 < h < 2R h=0.0446304=0.0446 m
