0.42m

Explanation:

specific gravity of wood700kgmm31000kgmm3=0.7(no units!)

%of wood immersed=0.7100=70%

volume of cube=(0.6m)3=0.216m3

depth of wood immersed=70%0.215=0.1512m3

Two of its sides will remain the same while immersed. So the depth(d) immersed,

0.60.6d=0.1512

d=0.1512m30.6m0.6m=0.42m
