the weight of the iceberg is supported by the buoyant force of the water; the buoyant force is equal to the
weight of the displaced water
weight of displaced water = density of water x volume displaced x g since the water is displaced by the iceberg, the volume of water displaced is the volume of the iceberg beneath the surface weight of iceberg = density of iceberg x volume of iceberg x g since these are equal, we have rho(water) x Volume (submerged) x g = rho(ice) Volume (ice) x g canceling out the g's and rearranging, we have volume(submerged)/volume(ice) = rho(ice)/rho(water) the left hand side is just the fraction of the iceberg that is submerged the right hand side is 920/1030 = 0.89 this means that 89% of the iceberg is submerged beneath the water =============================== A small metal weight weighs 110 N in water. When we tie a wood to the metal, since the wood floats in water, it will tend to reduce the weight of the metal since there is now a greater upward force. Hence the combined weight must be less than 110 N But in the problem it is given that the total weight is 140 N Hence the object cannot be wood. And the density of the object must be greater than that of water. ================================ A small metal weight weighs 110 N in water When an object is tied to it the weight is 140 N If the object alone weighed in water it will weigh 140 -110 = 30 N Its weight in air is 100 N Hence its loss of weight in water = 100-30 = 70 N The loss is due to the upward force equal to the weight of equal volume of water Hence 70 = V*1000*g Vg =0.07 Its weight in air = V g = 100 N =100 / (Vg) = 100 / 0.07 = 1428.57kg /m^3
