[Q] Sink or SUP? As a summer camp counselor, one day you take the kids to English Bay to rent some stand-up paddles (SUPs). All the kids want to go on the SUP together. You are worried that too many kids will make the SUP sink; luckily you know physics! How many kids are safe on the SUP? Here's some more info: Assume each child has a mass of 30 kg. The dimensions of the SUP are 3.00 m x 0.70m x 0.12 m. The SUP on its own sits 0.08 m above the water line. Salt water still has a density of 1025 kg/m³. Think about: What are you comparing here? What components are in the force you are looking to solve?
