    This document contains directions for Problem Set #2 on buoyancy which involves solving 5 problems related to determining volume and density of objects in water and other liquids based on their weight in different mediums. Students are asked to show their work using the GRESA method, highlight the final answers, use engineering lettering, and include illustrations for problems 2 and 3. The problems involve calculating volume and density, determining specific gravity of an object based on how high it projects out of different liquids, finding total volume based on weight in air and suspended weight immersed in water, and calculating the sinking depth of a log in fresh water.

    Problem Set #2: BUOYANCY

    DIRECTIONS: Solve the following problems as completely as possible. COPY AND ANSWER. Use GRESA method
    and HIGHLIGHT THE FINAL ANSWER. Put in a LONG BOND PAPER and use ENGINEERING LETTERING (3mm Font
    size, 3mm spacing).
    1. Determine the volume and density of an object that weighs 4 N in water and 5 N in an alcohol of SG
    0.8.

    2. A block of wood floats in water 7 inches projecting above the water surface. It is placed in alcohol of
    sp. gr. 0.82 and projected 4 in. above the surface. What is the SG of the block? Provide illustration.

    3. An ore sample weighs 15N in air. When the sample is suspended by light chord and totally immersed
    in water, the tension in the cord is 10.80 N. Find the total volume of the sample. Provide illustration.

    4. What fraction of the volume of a solid piece of metal of sp gr 7.25 floats above the surface of a
    container of mercury of sp gr 13.57?

    5. To what depth will an 8-ft-diameter log 15 ft long and of sp gr 0.425 sink in fresh water?
