A brass weight is to be attached to the bottom of the cylinder so that the cylinderwill be completely submerged and neutrally buoyant in water at 95°C, as shown inFigure 3. Find the required thickness of the brass (1).
A brass weight is to be attached to the bottom of a cylinder so that the cylinder will be completely submerged and neutrally buoyant in water at 95 degrees Celcius. The cylinder has a length of 786mm .The brass is to be a cylinder with the same diameter as the original cylinder. Given that the specific weight of the cylinder is 6.52KN/m3 and that of the brass is 87.99KN/m3 . What is the required thickness of the brass? NB specific weight of water at 95 degrees Celcius is 9.44KN/m3. GIVE YOU FINAL ANSWER IN mm
