Chapter 14, Problem 6(choose chapter or problem)
A solid iron sphere and a solid lead sphere of thesame size are each suspended by strings and are submergedin a tank of water. (Note that the density oflead is greater than that of iron.) Which of the followingstatements are valid? (Choose all correct statements.)(a) The buoyant force on each is the same.(b) The buoyant force on the lead sphere is greaterthan the buoyant force on the iron sphere because leadhas the greater density. (c) The tension in the stringsupporting the lead sphere is greater than the tensionin the string supporting the iron sphere. (d) The buoyantforce on the iron sphere is greater than the buoyantforce on the lead sphere because lead displacesmore water. (e) None of those statements is true.
