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 = \rho_{body} 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
