Then i need the gravity of the new planet to use any of these equations given... I do have the density of mercury=1.36x10^4 kg m3

i can solve for the volume of water, but do i know enough to find the volume of mercury?

Its going to be displaced by the tanker... so i have to use PfVfg=Weight of displaced fluid... But then i still have 2 unknowns vf and the weight displaced... hmm

I would probably need to find the volume of the tank to find how much it can hold... But i am not really sure how i can use it... what equations would help me get to the volume of the mercury

Homework Statement 500m long tanker loaded displaces 5.64763x10^8kg water. the tanker is moved to another planet, and it has to displace mercury. What volume of mercury would it displace? and do you need the gravity on that planet? Homework Equations Fb=Fg pf object of subject = P0V0g...

Thanks, I was over-thinking it and i cannot believe it is so simple.

Homework Statement Iceberg area: 3.10x10^4 km^2, Flat top and bottom. Submerged part .84 km. Water density: 1.035x10^3 what is the buoyant force acting on the iceberg? Homework Equations Fb=Fg pf object of subject = P0V0g PfVfg=Weight of displaced fluid=p0v0g=weight of object...
