A small block of wood of density `0.4xx10^(3)kg//m^(3)` is submerged in water at a depth of `2.9m`. Find (a) the acceletation of the block towards the surface when the block is released and (b) the time for the block to reach the surface, Ignore viscosity.

Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::C::D
(a) `a=("upthrust-weight")/(mass)`
`=((V)(1000)(9.8)-(V)(0.4xx10^(-3))(9.8))/((V)(0.4xx10^(3))`
`=14.7m//s^(2)`
(b) `t-sqrt((2s)/(a))`
`=sqrt((2xx2.9)/(14.7))`
`=0.63s`.
