Finding downward force on immersed object

[QUOTE="haruspex, post: 6866835, member: 334404"] Did the professor do that in the context of this problem or in the context of the diagram in post #3? Unless you have a solid reason to believe that the TA means ##F_i## to be the same as that marked on the diagram post #3, don’t assume it is. If that is what the TA means then he/she is a nincompoop and would be better ignored. Btw, according to your notes on that diagram, ##F_i## is the [I]upward[/I] force from the water on the bottom of the object. This conflicts with your FBD. It also creates the possibility that the TA is using it to mean the [I]net[/I] upward force, B, from the water, i.e. corresponds to ##F_i-F_j## in the diagram. If you will not accept what [USER=192687]@kuruman[/USER] and I are telling you then I do not see how we can assist further. [/QUOTE]
