A solid piece of wood (density: 650kg/m ) is floating in the ocean (water density: 1026kg/m').

The wood is 0.5m thick and each side of the wood is 6 m long.

1. Calculate the maximum possible buoyant force? Does the wood float in the water?
2. What is the maximum load (in kg) that can be placed on the piece of wood before it starts to sink?
3. Without any load, how deep is the raft beneath the water?
