Does the buoyant force on a submerged object depend on the volume of the object ir the weight of the object?

On its volume.


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.


Does the weight of an object immersed in liquid effect the buoyant force on the objects why?

The same object is more buoyant in a denser fluid, and is more likely to float, than in a less dense one. That's why tennis balls float in water but not in air.


How much buoyant force acts upon a balloon that weights 1 N?

The buoyant force doesn't depend on the object's weight. It depends on theobject's volume, which the question doesn't reveal.


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.


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.


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)


Does the buoyant force on a fully submerged object depend on the weight of the object or on the weight of the fluid displaced by the object?

The buoyant force on any object in a fluid ... whether partially or fully submerged ... isequal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. That's related to the object'svolume, and has nothing to do with its weight.


This force acts upwards on objects suspended in water or air what is it?

It is called buoyant force. It is calculated by determining the volume of water displaced by the object, which is the volume of the object under water.The weight of this quantity of water is the buoyant force. It can also be calculated by knowing the depth of the object in the water, the pressure at that depth, and the area of the bottom of the object. Buoyant Force = Pressure * depth It can also be calculated by knowing the weight of the object. If an object is floating the water is supporting the object's weight. So the buoyant force = weight of object


Does the bouyant force on a submerged object depend on the weight of the object?

No, but the difference between the buoyant force and the weight of the object will determine whether it floats or sinks.


Why will be the buoyant force more if the volume of the object is more?

More volume means that the object displaces more water. The buoyant force is exactly equal to the weight of the displaced water. Or other liquid.


When an object floats the buoyant force is the weight of the object?

If the object is floating, then the buoyant force is equal to the object's weight.
