Answer:


F_B=235200\ N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The volume of the cube, V = 24 m³

The density of water, d = 1000 kg/m³

We need to find the buoyant force acting on this cube when it totally submerged in water. The formula for the buoyant force is given by :


F_B=dgV

Substitute all the values,


F_B=1000* 9.8* 24\\\\F_B=235200\ N

So, the required force is equal to 235200 N.
