You want to size a hollow sphere made of bronze with an outer radius re and an unknown inner radius ri, as shown in the attached figure. This hollow sphere must be immersed in water and must have a thickness e such that it can be suspended in the liquid. Determine the thickness of the hollow sphere for this condition to be met. To facilitate calculations, consider that the interior of the sphere is in a vacuum. The data needed to solve the problem are: re = 0.5 m rhow = 1000 kg / m3 rhobronze = 8300 kg / m3
