Question
Please answer question 6 part g

Transcribed Image Text:Problem 6: A cube with edges of length L = 0.24 m and density Qc = 2.1×103 kg/m³ is
totally submerged in water, with a density of Qw = 1.00x103 kg/m³, and oil, with a
density of g, = 0.87×10³ kg/m³, as shown in the figure. The cube is submerged in the
water to a depth of d = 0.055 m, while the rest of the cube is in oil. The cube is
suspended by a taut string and is in static equilibrium.
