g A 4 cm diameter "bobber" with a mass of 3 grams floats on a pond. A thin, light fishing line is tied to the bottom of the bobber, and from the bottom hangs a 10 gram lead weight. The density of lead is 11.3 g/cm3. What fraction of the bobber's volume is submerged, as a percent of the total volume

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

total weight acting downwards

= 3g + 10g

13 g

volume of lead = 10 / 11.3 = .885 cm³

Let the volume of bobber submerged in water be v in floating position . buoyant force on bobber  = v x 1 x g

Buoyant force on lead =  .885 x 1 x g

total buoyant force = vg + .885 g

For floating

vg + .885 g  = 13 g

v = 12.115 cm³

total volume of bobber

= 4/3 x 3.14 x 2³

= 33.5 cm³

fraction of volume submerged

= 12.115  / 33.5

= .36  

= 36 %

The fraction of the bobber's volume submerged as a percent of the total volume is 36.2 %.

The given parameters;

  • diameter of the bobber, d = 4 cm
  • mass of the bobber, m = 3 g
  • mass of the lead, m = 10 g
  • density of the lead, ρ = 11.3 g/cm³

The volume of the bobber is calculated as follows;

[tex]V = \frac{4}{3} \pi \times r^3\\\\V = \frac{4}{3} \pi \times (2)^3\\\\V = 33.52 \ cm^3[/tex]

The buoyant force experienced by the bobber due to the volume submerged is calculated as follows;

[tex]F _b= \rho Vg\\\\F_b = 1 \times V \times g\\\\F_b = Vg[/tex]

The volume of the lead is calculated as follows;

[tex]V = \frac{mass}{density} \\\\V = \frac{10}{11.3} \\\\V = 0.885 \ cm^3[/tex]

The buoyant force experienced by the lead due to the volume submerged is calculated as follows

[tex]F_b = \rho Vg\\\\F_b = 0.885 g[/tex]

The total buoyant force is calculated as;

[tex]Vg + 0.885g = (3+ 10)g\\\\g(V + 0.885) = 13g\\\\V+ 0.885 = 13\\\\V = 13 -0.885\\\\V = 12.12 \ cm^3[/tex]

The fraction of the bobber's volume submerged as a percent of the total volume is calculated as follows;

[tex]= \frac{12.12}{33.52} \times 100\%\\\\= 36.2 \ \%[/tex]
