Bob, a spherical person, is floating around peacefully when Dave the giant orange fish launches him straight up 23 m/s with his tail. If Bob has density 100 $\text{kg/m}^3$, let $f(r)$ denote how far underwater his centre of mass plunges underwater once he lands, assuming his centre of mass was at water level when he's launched up. Find $\lim_{r\to0} \left(f(r)\right) $. Express your answer is meters and round to the nearest integer. Assume the density of water is 1000 $\text{kg/m}^3$. [i](B. Dejean, 6 points)[/i]
