m = 0.3g density, $ρ_{(b a l l)} = 8 g / c c$ $∴ V = \frac{m}{ρ} = \frac{0.3}{8} c c$

$ρ_{g l y c e r e n e} = 1.3 g / c c = 1.3 * 1 0^{3} k g / m^{3}$

F_v + F_B = mg.

F_v = mg – F_B = .3 * 103 * 10 – 1.3 * $\frac{0.3}{8} * 1 0^{- 6} * 10 * 1 0^{3}$

$= 3 * 1 0^{- 3} - \frac{. 39}{8} * 1 0^{- 2} = 3 * 1 0^{- 3} - . 5 * 1 0^{- 3}$

= 2.5 * 103N

= 25 * 104N

x = 25
