Reinforced concrete pipe measuring 4×0.3×0.25 m is submerged in water for half its volume.

Reinforced concrete pipe measuring 4×0.3×0.25 m is submerged in water for half its volume. What is the Archimedean force acting on the plate?

To find out the Archimedean force acting on the specified reinforced concrete slab, consider the formula: FAx = ρH2O * g * Vpil = ρH2O * g * Vpl / 2.

Const: ρH2O – density of water (we consider fresh water and ρH2O = 10 ^ 3 kg / m3); g – acceleration due to gravity (g ≈ 9.81 m / s2).

Data: Vpl – the volume of the specified reinforced concrete slab (Vpl = 4 * 0.3 * 0.25 m3).

Let’s calculate: FAx = ρH2O * g * Vpl / 2 = 10 ^ 3 * 9.81 * 4 * 0.3 * 0.25 / 2 = 1471.5 N.

Answer: A buoyant force of 1471.5 N. must act on the indicated reinforced concrete slab.
