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

On its volume.


What happens to the body when the upthrust is less than the weight of the object'?

An object that is COMPLETELY submerged in water has its Upthrust equal its weight, but it doesn't necessarily float, an object could be at the rock-bottom of the ocean, and it would still have its upthrust equal to its weight. This is because the upthrust is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced, and so while the objects volume remains constant, and assuming the density of the fluid it displaces is constant.. The upthrust remains constant, this is unless the object compresses and has its density altered.. I know I didn't directly answer your question, but I hope this helps.. Even if a little.


What is upthurst?

This is the name given to a bouyancey force. When an object diplaces a fluid, the amount of upthrust received is proportional to the volume of fluid displaced. When an object is floating then the upthrust is equal to the objects weight. When more people get on to a boat, the boat sinks further into the water, displacing more water so that the upthrust increases to balance the new weight. If an object sinks then the amount of upthrust it receives is less than the weight so the object falls. Just because it sinks doesn't mean that there is no upthrust, there is. This is why heavy objects appear lighter if you place them in water.


How does the upthrust effect an object?

The upthrust is the reaction force that water exerts on an object inside water. if the upthust of the water is less than the force exerted by the object, the object sinks in water, and if the upthrust is greater than or equal to the force exerted by the object, the object floats.


Does the amount of water displaced by an object depend on its mass or its volume?

Volume


What is meant by upthrust or by buoyant force?

When an object is immersed in liquid then an equal volume of liquid would be displaced to the upper surface. The weight of this expelled liquid would be used as a force to push up the immersed object. Hence it is named as upthrust or buoyant force


The buoyancy of an object can be changed by changing the object's average density true or false?

The upthrust depends on the volume of object if volume is more the liquid displaced will be more and the force per unit area will increase and density is equal to mass per unit volume so by density the buoyancy.


Do boats float better on fresh water or salt water?

The floating or sinking of an object depends on the upthrust force the water exerts on the object. By Archmides' principle, Upthrust Force = (Density of Liquid) * (Volume of Liquid Displaced by the object) therefore the upthrust force depends on the density of the liquid, and as salt water has a larger density than fresh water, boats should float better on salt water.


What is the formula for calculating upthrust?

upthrust = densiy x volume x gravitaional field strength


How is the upthrust related to volume of the body submerged in a liquid?

The upthrust is the volume, multiplied by the weight density of the liquid in which it is submerged - or the volume, times the mass density of the liquid, times the gravitational field.


What is cause of upthrust force?

It is when an object floats due to balanced force between upthrust of the fluid (pushing upwards) and weight of the object (pushing downwards).
