A cubical block of wood 0.100 m on a side and with density of 550 kg/m3 floats in a jar of water. Oil with a density of 750 kg/m3 is poured on the water until the top of the oil layer is 0.035 m below the top of the block. a) How deep is the oil layer? b) What is the gauge pressure at the block’s lower face?
