Does the buoyant force on a submerged object depend on the weight of the object itself or on the weight of the fluid displaced by the object?
The upward bouyant force depends only on the weight of the displaced fluid. The NET force (object's weight - bouyant force) depends on the object's weight and will determine how fast it sinks.
How is the weight of water displaced by a floating body related to the weight of the body itself?
As the body floats then the weight of the body and weight of displaced liquid would be equal to each other. Hence it floats
What is the size of the buoyant force acting on an object?
What is the buoyancy force on an object which displaces 10,300 kg of water?100,940 NAbout how many pounds is this? (Remember, a one kilogram mass weighs 2.2 pounds at sea level.)22,660 lbssources AOA
How do you derived formula of buoyant force?
well it's easy..:D we consider a cylindrical portion of a liquid and find that on an average the object(water itself) remains stationary. This gives us an idea that the upward force(buoyant force) equals the gravitational force. Therefore the buoyant force in this case is the "mg" itself but in fluids we talk in terms of the volume and density so it is V(rho)g. Plus this buoyant force in any case is independent of the object coz' it is fundamentally rooted to the Brownian motion and striking of the particles on the object which leads to the upward force. So it only depends on the volume of the object. And the buoyant force is defined as Volume *density of liquid*g.
What can time depend on?
it depends upon the space itself.....(in short)
What scientific rule states that the buoyant force an an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object?
Since the object is submerged, we know that the buoyant force is not sufficient to overcome the weight of the object, otherwise it would be floating rather than being submerged. Therefore, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water, not the weight of the object itself.
Does it depend on the weight of the object itself or on its volume itself in a bouyant force of an object?
The buoyant force on an object depends only on the weight of the fluid displaced: Fb = Vd*ρf*g Vd may not be the volume of the object; for example: if the object is floating on the liquid surface. Also, there may be other forces acting on the object, such as its weight (Mo*g)

What is the weight resistance of a gallon jug filled with air under water?
The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid (Archimedes Principle). A gallon jug underwater will have a buoyant force equal to the weight of the displaced water: eight pounds. The total weight will also include the normal downward weight of the jug itself and the air it contains.

Buoyant air will rise until it?
Buoyant air will rise until it reaches warmer air that is the same density as itself.
What is the free convection level?
Of course, it is when air is positively buoyant, while it rises itself.
Why things float on water?
Objects will float on water because they aren't as dense as the water itself. A ship will float because there are a lot of compartments filled with air, which is not as dense as water.The above answer is also valid but according to the Archimedes Principle, the buoyant force on a submerged object is equal to the weight of the fluid that is displaced by the object.
Even though a bowling ball weighs less than a metal-hull ship a bowling ball in a bathtub sinks but a metal-hull ship in the ocean floats why?
The water that the hull in ship displaces is way more heavier than the hull itself, so the water surface holds the ship floating... If you had a bowling ball made of hull-material it would sink anyway.. What it does that the ship floats is the amount of displaced water, which in weight is going to be higher than the floating object's weight itself...
How is the big toe bone displaced in the formation of a bunion?
The other bone involved is the big toe itself, which is displaced toward the smaller toes. As the big toe continues to move toward the smaller toes, it may become displaced under or over the second toe.
