Answer:
44.95 tonnes
Explanation:
According to principle of buoyancy the object will just sink when it's weight is more than the weight of the liquid it displaces
It is given that empty weight of box = 40 tons
Let the mass of the stones to be placed be = M tonnes
Thus the combined mass of box and stones = (40+M) tonnes..........(i)
Since the box will displace water equal to it's volume V we have 

Now the weight of water displaced =
is density of water = 1000kg/
Thus weight of liquid displaced =
..................(ii)
Equating i and ii we get
40 + M = 84.95
thus Mass of stones = 44.95 tonnes
Answer:
d) 9.55 psi
Explanation:
pressure at the bottom is =ρgh
weight density is ρg=55 lb/ft³
h=25ft
pressure at the bottom is =
=1375psf
1 ft = 12 inch
pressure at bottom =
= 9.55 psi
so, answer will be option (d) which is 9.55 psi
