Answer:

(a) 4400.83 N

(b) 1051.7 N

(c) 3349.13 N

Explanation:

V = 1.4 ft^3 = 0.0396 m^3

density of lead = 11.34 x 10^3 kg/m^3

density of aluminium = 2710 kg/m^3

(a) When lead is used

Weight = mass x gravity = volume x density x gravity

            = 0.0396 x 11.34 x 1000 x 9.8 = 4400.83 N

(b) when aluminium is used

Weight = mass x gravity = volume x density x gravity

           = 0.0396 x 2710 x 9.8 = 1051.7 N

(c) Difference in weight = 4400.83 - 1051.7 = 3349.13 N
