What is the relationship between buoyant force and the objects weight?
In the general case, these are quite unrelated; the buoyant force is related to the object's volume, not its weight. Or the part of the volume that is submerged in the liquid or gas. However, if the object is freely floating, then the buoyant force will be equal to its weight.
When does buoyant force become maximum?
As soon as an object is completely submerged in the liquid, displacing the maximum volume of liquid.
How does the amount of buoyant force exerted by water vary with the volume of submerged solid?
The amount of buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water. The VOLUME of the displaced water is equal to the part of the solid that is submerged - thus, the buoyant force is equal to this volume, times the density of the water.
How do you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object like a mineral?
Submerge the object in a known volume of liquid within a container with graduation markings. Carefully turn the object to release and trapped gases from concavities. Measure the new volume of liquid with the object submerged and subtract the original volume. The difference is the volume of the irregularly shaped object. If the object is buoyant, choose a lower density liquid or hold the object beneath the surface with a rod or rods, noting the length of rod(s) submerged at the time of the second fluid measurement, then subtract the volume of rod submerged from the difference in the two fluid volumes.
What does a submerged object displace?
a submerged object displaces liquid which is equal to its volume
Does the buoyant force on an object depend on the weight or of the volume of the object?
volume
The buoyant force on an object is least when the object is?
The buoyant force is zero when the object is just touching the liquid. As the object displaces more volume, the buoyant force increases until the object is completely submerged. Once the object is submerged, it doesn't matter how deep it is, the buoyant force remains constant.
What is the buoyant force of a 150lb object submerged in water?
That completely depends on the object's volume (which you have not mentioned). The buoyant force on it is equal to the weight of an equal volume of water.

An object with a mass of 4.6 kilograms and a volume of 0.0025 cubic meters is submerged in water. What is the buoyant force on the object?
The buoyant force is equal to the amount of water displaced. Multiply the volume of the object by the density of water - then convert that to a force (at about 9.8 newton/kilogram).
How does the amount of buoyant force exerted by water vary with the volume of submerged solid?
The amount of buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced water. The VOLUME of the displaced water is equal to the part of the solid that is submerged - thus, the buoyant force is equal to this volume, times the density of the water.

What does a submerged object displace?

What does the amount of fluid displaced by a submerged object depened on?
The volume of the submerged object.
A completely submerged object displaces it own?
A submerged object will displace its own volume of the liquid it is submerged in.
Does the weight of an object immersed in a buoyant liquid affect the buoyant force on the object?
It is not the weight of the immersed object but the volume of the object would affect the buoyant force on the immersed object because the buoyant force is nothing but the weight of the displaced liquid whose volume is equal to that of the immersed object.
