Problem 4 ( 6 pts) An open-topped tank with square bottom, 0.9 m
on a side is 0.60 m high. It floats in water. A steel block
(s=7.86) is placed inside at the bottom center. If the tank alone
weighs 300 N, and neglecting the thickness of the walls of the
tank, determine (4.a) the maximum allowable weight of steel in KN.
(4.b) the draft, in m if the same steel block is now attached at
the bottom center outside the tank.
