A floating ball has a density (P») of 600 kg/m' and has a radius (R) of 0.055 m. The equation that
gives the depth (x) to which the ball is submerged under water with a density (Pw) of 1000 kg/m
is given by:4
4/3*pi*R^3*pb*g=pi*x^2(R_x/3)*Pw*g
where the gravitational acceleration g = 9.81 m/s.
R
a) Use the false-position method to find the depth x to
which the ball is submerged under water within an
interval [0, 0.1]? Conduct three iterations only and find
the absolute relative approximate error at the end of
each iteration?
Water
Note: Summarize your results in one table and show one complete sample of calculations for one
iteration only.
b) If you would change the previous method to an open domain method to find the depth x; what
method would you select? Explain briefly (in English and without calculations), what would
you do and how would you do the computations.

A solid steel sphere of radius 1.50cm and density of 8045 kg/m³ was launched on a horizontal frictionless surface. The sphere was launched using a spring gun which possessed a spring with a force constant of 35.6 N/m. The spring was compressed 30.0 cm and the sphere was launched. At the end of the frictionless surface (that was 0.955 m above the floor), the sphere rolled (no slipping) up a 25° ramp with height of 1.15m and then launched off...
