Flat-bottomed boat floats in fresh water

Reference no: EM13664504

A 200.0 kg flat-bottomed boat floats in fresh water, which has a density of 1000.0 kg/m₃. Assuming that the base of the boat is 1.42 m wide and 4.53 m long, how much of the boat is submerged when it carries three passengers whose total mass is 242 kg?
