What else can I help you with?
If the buoyant force is less than the weight of an object put in a fluid what will happen to the object?
If the buoyant force is less than the weight of an object placed in a fluid, the object will sink. This is because the force pulling the object down (its weight) is greater than the force pushing it up (buoyant force).
Is there a buoyant force acting on you if there is why are you not buoyant up by this force?
Yes, there is a buoyant force acting on you when you are submerged in a fluid. However, whether you float or sink depends on the relationship between the buoyant force and your weight. If the buoyant force is greater than your weight, you will float; if it is less, you will sink.
What can happen when the buoyant force on an object is greater than the weight of the object.?
When the buoyant force on an object is greater than the weight of the object, the object will float. This is because the upward force of buoyancy exceeds the downward force of gravity, allowing the object to stay afloat in a fluid.
Is the buoyant force of a metal equal to the buoyant force of a wood that has the same mass?
Buoyant force is based upon the mass of the water displaced. Therefore, two objects will have the same buoyant force if they have the some volumes.
What force is opposing the buoyant force?
The force opposing the buoyant force is the force of gravity. Gravity pulls objects downward, creating a force that must be overcome by the buoyant force in order for an object to float in a fluid.
What is an buoyant force?
A buoyant force equals the weight of the fluid being displaced
What is the relationship of buoyant force and density of liquid?
The buoyant force on an object submerged in a liquid is equal to the weight of the displaced liquid. The density of the liquid affects the buoyant force as denser liquids will exert a greater buoyant force on an object compared to less dense liquids.
How is it possible for an object to sink even though a buoyant force is pushing on it?
An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid in which it is placed; if it is denser, it will sink. In terms of forces, if the force of gravity (downward) is greater than the buoyant force (upward), then of course the net force will be downward, and the object will sink.
If the buoyant force equals the objects weight what will happen to the object?
If the buoyant force equals the object's weight, the object will float at a constant level in the fluid. This is known as neutral buoyancy. The object will neither sink nor rise in the fluid.
What would happen if the weight of an object was less than its buoyant force?
The object would float in a given liquid.
What will happen if the buoyant force of a liquid is less than the weight of an object placed in that fluid?
The object will sink in the fluid.
What happen if the buoyant force of a fluid is less than the weight of an object placed in the fluid?
The object will sink in the fluid.
