For a submarine to stay submerged, it must be neutrally buoyant, which means it is maintaining a careful balance between its weight and the buoyant force of water pushing it toward the surface.

Question

For a submarine to stay submerged, it must be neutrally buoyant, which means it is maintaining a careful balance between its weight and the buoyant force of water pushing it toward the surface. If a submarine has an enclosed volume of 981.157 m³, how much must it weigh to stay submerged? (Use 1000 kg/m³ for the density of water.)
