A cylindrical buoy 0.60 m in diameter and 1.80m high weighs 205kg. It is moored in salt water to a 12m length of chain weighing 12 kg/m of length. At high tide the height of the buoy protruding above water is 0.84m. What could be the height pf protrusion of the buoy if the tide dropped 2.10m? Specific weight of the steel chain is 7,790 kg/m^3.
