Problem 10.34 An undersea research chamber is spherical with an external diameter of 4,70 m.The msss ofthe chamber, when ocaapled, is 53700 kg ltis anchored to the sea bollom by a cable. The density of seawater is 1025 kg/m Part A What is the buoyant force on the chamber? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units, n Value Units Subnit My Answers Give Ue Part B What is the tension in the cable? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Value Units Submit My Answers Give Up

Explanation / Answer

Q1. an undersea research chamber is spherical..

a)
The buoyant force B = 1/6*pi*d^3*pw*g

=> B = 1/6*pi*4.70^3*1025*9.8

=> B = 546062.23 N

b)
Tension in the cable
F = (1/6*pi*d^3*pw - m)*g

=> F = (1/6*pi*(4.70)^3*1025 -53700 )*9.8

=> F = 19802.23 N
