In sand
casting, it is important that the cope-mold half be weighted down with
sufficient force to keep it from floating when the molten metal is poured in.
For the casting shown, calculate the minimum amount of weight necessary to keep
the cope from floating up as the molten metal is poured in. (Hint: The buoyancy
force exerted by the molten metal on the cope is dependent on the effective
height of the metal head above the cope.)
