A common belief is that a hole in a jet plane can suck a person out. On an episode of a popular TV series, the hosts attempted to determine whether this is possible. According to the hosts' experiment, such an event cannot happen. Did they need to perform the experiment? As a science adviser to the show, the hosts ask you to perform a crude calculation to test the myth. A typical jet plane travels at 542 mph542 mph at a cruising altitude of 25500 ft.25500 ft.

Archimedes' thrust is the vertical force oriented upwards experienced by a body immersed in a liquid (allowing it to float). This force corresponds to the weight of the volume of the displaced liquid. For example, a object immersed in water (density 1000 kg / m3 ) will undergo a flare of Archimedes of 9810 N for each cubic meter of its submerged volume (i.e. 9, 81 m / s2 1000 kg / m3 1 m3 = 9810 N). A buoy is made from a steel tube 4 meters long and 0.5 radius meter to which we welded a half-sphere at each end. Knowing that the weight of the buoy is 3630 N say what will be the immersion height of this buoy if it is submerged in fresh water (density 1000 kg / m3 ).
