A object weighing 10 pounds with a volume of 1 cubic foot will sink until
0.16 of its volume is under water, and the remaining 0.84 of its volume is
above the surface. At that point, the weight of the displaced water is
(0.16 cubic foot) x (62.5 pounds/cubic foot) = 10 pounds,
and the object will float at that depth, and sink no further.
