Reference no: EM13556124

A long uniform wooden bar with square crosssection floats on water. Show that , if the relativedensity of wood is 0.50, the bar will float with all fourfaces making an angle of 45 degrees with the water surface. ( Hint : The bar floats in theequilibrium position for which the potential energy is a minimum.)
