Answer:

Explanation:

submerged volume of pump = 40 x 12⁻³ ft³

density of oil = .9 x 62.4 lb ft⁻³ ( specific gravity x density of water )

mass of displaced oil = 40 x 12⁻³ x  .9 x 62.4 lb

= 1.3 lb

buoyant force = 1.3 lb

weight of pump = 14.6 lb

extra force needed for balancing pump by spring

= 14.6 - 1.3

= 13.3 lb .
