Homework Equations
density = mass/volume
FB = rhoo vog for a floating object
F = mg
The Attempt at a Solution
Buoyant force = force of gravity due to the board
rhoo vo = m
vo = area*height submerged
vo = 2.4*.05
vo = 0.12 m^3
volume of the board = thickness*area
= 0.15*2.4
= 0.36 m^3
To find the density of the board, I need to know the mass of the board. I tried using the buoyant force of a floating object, but I need the density of the object.
Any help?
