A float valve, regulating the flow of water into a reservoir, is shown in the figure. The spherical float (half of the sphere is submerged) is 0.15ab m in diameter. AOB is the weightless link carrying the float at one end, and a valve at the other end which closes the pipe through which flows into the reservoir. The link is mounted on a frictionless hinge at O, and the angle AOB is 135o. The length of OA is 253 mm and the distance between the center of the float and the hinge is 553 mm. When the flow is stopped AO will be vertical. The valve is to be pressed on to the seat with a force of 10,53 N to be completely stop the flow in the reservoir. It was observed that the flow of water is stopped, when the free surface of water in the reservoir is 3ab mm below the hinge at O. Determine the weight of the float sphere.
