An average adult has a mass of 81 kg, knowing that the average human density is very close to that of fresh water (1,000 kg/m3), (a) Calculate the buoyant force exerted by fresh water on that person. (b) If this adult jumped in a tank filled with Glycerine (sg = 1.263) what will be the percentage of the submerged volume below the surface?
