A 10 kg loggerhead sea turtle has a lung volume of 1 L and a body volume of 9.5 L (lungs empty) or 10.5 L ( lungs full). Assume a water density of 1 kg/L. The sea turtle fills its lungs on the surface; how much buoyant force is preventing it from sinking (after subtracting gravity)?

A hot-air balloon consists of a basket banging beneath a large envelope filled with hot air. A topical hot-air balloon has a total mass of 545 kg. including passengers in its basket, and holds 2.55 103 m3 of hot air in its envelope.
