An empty 18.00 x 9.000 x 2.500 barge is floats in Conception Bay (ρ = 1,023 kg/m³).

a) Calculate to what depth the empty barge is submerged when it floats, given its empty weight is 2,940 kN.

b) Calculate the mass of additional grabage that may be added to the barge such that it is on the verge of sinking, in a calm body of water.

Prove that step by step and clear handwritten. Follow the comment Conception: Limit point 1.Prove N'=empty 2.Prove Q'=R 3. E=(2,5), E'=[2,5] my question is that why the collection limit point of E includes 2 and 5? obviously, 2 and 5 are not in E. If they can be limit point in E does that mean R can be all set's collection of all limit point? such as R'=R, Q'=R, N'=R???
