My best guess would be:
Heavy (case1). mg = downwards force - buoyancy. DownwardsF = 200g - 981N = 981N?
I'm not sure how the lighter sphere will act though. If it's specific density is lower than 1 then only part of the sphere will be submerged if it's acting seperately?
Homework Statement
Two spheres, with volume 0.1m^3, and masses M1=200kg and M2=15kg, are connected by a thin wire. They are dropped into the ocean (assume Rho=1000kg/m^3) and allowed to sink
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I know buoyancy = Rho * g * V
Buoyancy +...
