dear kedar,

a downward force due to weight will act ,

and an upward buoyant force will act

and ther resulatant will be balanced by the tension in the string,

an that will be 3mg,

Thus the force exerted by the string on the cork is 3mg,

Three identical balls are placed on a frictionless horizontal surface touching each other. They stick to each other because of adhesive. Another ball of same radius and mass m is placed over the void created by the three balls. Find the forces applied by the balls kept on the floor to each other if the system remains in equilibrium.
