Answer:
B = 62.9 N
Explanation:
This is an exercise on Archimedes' principle, where the thrust force equals the weight of the liquid
B = ρ g V
write the equilibrium equation
T + B -W = 0
B = W- T (1)
use the density to write the weight
ρ = m / V
m = ρ V
W = ρ g V
substitute in 1
B = m g -T
B = g V - T
To finish the calculation, the density of the material must be known, suppose it is steel \rho_{body} = 7850 kg / m³
calculate
B = 7850 9.8 1.20 10⁻³ - 29.4
B = 92.3 - 29.4
B = 62.9 N
