The length of rectangular dock is #80m# and it's width is #20m#. The volume of water in the dock is #3450m^3#

Height of water in the dock with floating boat is #5m#

So

#"volume of displaced water"+3450=80xx20xx5m^3#

#=>"volume of displaced water"=8000-3450=4550m^3#

Hence the mass of displaced water will be

#4550m^3xx1026kg*m^-3#

#=4668300kg#
