    How Much Lead Is Needed to Sink a Floating Log?

    To find the fb of lead would i just do density of lead times volume of the log? I don't know how to solve for the Fb of lea what numbers to use. (11300)(0.004197531)(9.81)=465.3N

    How Much Lead Is Needed to Sink a Floating Log?

    I don't have the mass of lead only the density. and how do you know its a cylinder? and if it is a cylinder i still can't find the volume that way because i don't have the radius or height.

    How Does Water Pressure Vary in Different Shaped Tanks?

    Help please! my questions was a little different but has the same tanks and wording, just asks stuff about different tanks. A) The force due to the water on the bottom of tank C is... the weight of the water in the tank. B) The water in tank C exerts an upward force on the sides of the...
