Several members of the drug cartel are transporting large amounts of money, gold, and drugs across the ocean. They suddenly realize that law enforcement is closing in on them from all directions.  They discreetly throw all of the evidence overboard, with plans to return to the spot at a later time to retrieve all of the cargo from the bottom of the sea.  One of the objects thrown overboard is a solid sphere of gold, with a diameter of 0.253 m.  The density of the sea is 1.025 x 103 kg/m3 and the density of gold is 19.32 x 103 kg/m3. A crane then lifts the sphere off the ocean floor and holds it suspended at rest in the water at a depth of 225 m (the top of the sphere is at this depth). a. Calculate the fluid pressure acting on the top of the sphere. b. Calculate the buoyant force acting on the sphere c. How much force must the crane apply to hold the sphere suspended at rest?
