Chapter 18: Problem 3
A thin uniform cylindrical shell, closed at both ends, is partially filled with water. It is floating vertically in water in half-submerged state. If \(\rho_{c}\) is the relative density of the material of the shell with respect to water, then the correct statement is that the shell is (A) more than half-filled if \(\rho_{c}\) is less than \(0.5\). (B) more than half-filled if \(\rho_{c}\) is more than \(1.0 .\) (C) half-filled if \(\rho_{c}\) is more than \(0.5\). (D) less than half-filled if \(\rho_{c}\) is less than \(0.5\).
