A lead block is suspended by means of a string from the underside of a 8.00 kg block of wood of density of 696 kg/m3. If the upper surface of the wood is just level with the water, what is the tension in the string?(The density of lead is 11340 kg/m3)

If the upper surface of the wood is just level with the water, the tension in the string is 34.2 Newton.

Mass of block of wood;

Density of wood;

Density of lead;

Density of water;

First we determine the volume of wood:

Now, using Archimedes principle:

Buoyancy force is determined using the equation:

Where:

We substitute our values into the equation

Now, buoyancy force = Weight + Tension

We substitute in our values

Therefore, if the upper surface of the wood is just level with the water, the tension in the string is 34.2 Newton.

Tension of rope T = 35.16 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of block = 8 kg

Wood of density = 696 kg/m³

Density of lead = 11,340 kg/m³

Find:

Tension in the string

Computation:

Volume of wood = Mass of block / Wood of density

Volume of wood = 8 / 696

Using Archimedes law

Mw + M  = (Vw + V) 1,000

8/1,000 + 11,340v = (Vw + V) 1,000

V = 3.47 x 10⁻⁴

Tension of rope T

T = v (11,340 - 1,000)9.8 N

T = (3.47 x 10⁻⁴)(11,340 - 1,000)9.8 N

Tension of rope T = 35.16 N
