A paint document was used to present an answer regarding a problem about removing heat from freezing water. The initial response was criticized for referencing melting ice, which was irrelevant since the problem involved water at 0 degrees Celsius. Clarification was provided that the heat removal process applies to water at this temperature. The discussion emphasizes the importance of accurately interpreting the problem statement. Overall, the reliability of a paint document for answer verification is questioned based on the clarity of the content presented.

You answer does not make any sense. The problem is about removing heat from freezing water. Yet you are talking about "ice melted". There was no ice to begin with, what can melt there, especially if heat was removed?
 
ok so the heat is being removed from the water which is initially at 0 deg celc. is this correct?
 
Yes, that's what the problem said.
 
The book claims the answer is that all the magnitudes are the same because "the gravitational force on the penguin is the same". I'm having trouble understanding this. I thought the buoyant force was equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. Weight depends on mass which depends on density. Therefore, due to the differing densities the buoyant force will be different in each case? Is this incorrect?
