Answer» cubical wooden BLOCK of specific gravity s1 floats in a liquid of specific graave to calculate depth of wood under VITY s2 as shown .the ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE is p0 .find 1.) Force exerted on the face Ad 2).the force exerted on face BCFirst we have to calculate depth of wood under water. The depth of surface AD under liquid is the pressure at depth h under water.We have weight of wood block = wt of the liquid dispersed. W₁ x L³ = W₂ x L² x h h = W₁ x L / W₂Pressure under depth is m x g x h P AD = W₂ x g x h = W₂ x g x W₁ x L / W₂ P AD = g W₁ LNow F AD = g W₁ L x L² Force on AD = g W₁ L³The upper surface BC exposed to atmosphere So force = pressure / Area Force on BC = P₀ / L² |
