Humans consist of about 80-90% water by weight distributed in tissues and bodily fluids.
The apparent weight of a body floating in water is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the body. This is known as Archimedes' principle. The apparent weight is less than the actual weight of the body due to the buoyant force acting on it.
If the weight of a body in water is zero, it means the body is in a state of neutral buoyancy where it neither sinks nor floats. This occurs when the weight of the water displaced by the body is equal to the weight of the body itself.
The weight of the floating body is equal to the weight of the water that is displaced. This relationship is known as Archimedes' principle. The buoyant force acting on the floating body is equal to the weight of the water it displaces, allowing the body to float.
Almost 60 % of body weight is composed of water. 40 % of the body water is in the intracellular compartment and 20 % of the body water is there in extracellular compartment.
This statement is not correct. The weight of the water displaced by a body in it, is equal to the buoyancy force that the body will experience. In the case the body floats on the surface of water, the weight of the water displaced by the body is equal to the weight of the body.
No, the weight of the body will not increase when immersed in water. The weight of an object is determined by the force of gravity acting on it, which remains constant regardless of whether the object is in water or in air. The apparent weight of the body will be less in water due to the buoyant force acting on it.
The weight of water displaced by a floating body is equal to the weight of the body itself. This is known as Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on a body immersed in fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body.
When a body is immersed in water, it experiences buoyant force which reduces its weight. This results in a decrease in apparent weight, which can be misinterpreted as weight loss. However, the actual mass of the body remains the same as the buoyant force only affects the apparent weight.
Spring balance shows remarkably less weight of yours, when immersed in the water. Your weight will be shown less as much the weight of water you have displaced.
The weight of the body in water is reduced by the weight of the water displaced, which is 100N - 65N = 35N. Therefore, the upthrust on the body is 35N.
Water accounts for about 60% of a man's body weight.
If the weight of a body in water becomes zero, it means that the buoyant force acting on the body is equal to the weight of the body. This implies that the body is completely submerged and in equilibrium, neither sinking nor rising.
