When a massive GameCube with an edge length of 0.5 m is 10 m below the surface of a body of water, the buoyant force it feels has magnitude F. When the top of the GameCube rises to a depth of 5 m, what is the magnitude of the buoyant force?

Correct Answer: B. F
Since the GameCube is totally submerged at both depths, the buoyant force, B = pVg, is the same at both depths.
