Learning Goal To understand the applications of Archimedes

Learning Goal To understand the applications of Archimedes principle Archimedes principle is a powerful tool for solving many problems involving equilibrium in fluids It states the following When a body is partially or completely submerged in a fluid either a liquid or a gas the fluid exerts an upward force on the body equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body As a result of the upward Archimedes force often called the buoyant force some objects may float in a fluid and all of them appear to weigh less This is the familiar phenomenon of buoyancy Quantitatively the buoyant force can be found as Fbuoyant pfluidgV where Fbuoyant is the force Pfluid is the density of the fluid g is the magnitude of the free fall acceleration and V is the volume of the An object is placed in a fluid a or sinks to the bottom Note Part A Consider the following s The magnitude of the bu Under what circumstanc View Available Hint O for every object s O only for an object
