What property of an object determines the strength of the buoyant force acting on the object in a fluid?
The density of the object or the shape of the object (like a boat) determines the buoyant force.
How does the buoyant force on a boat change if the boat is loaded?
The heavier the boat is loaded, the deeper in the water the boat will float.
What is the meaning of buoyant?
Buoyant - is something that 'floats' on the surface of whatever medium it is resting on. For example a boat on water is buoyant.
What is the upward force acting on an object in fluid?
The upward force is what's called the "buoyant force". It's exactly the weight of the fluid that would be in the space occupied by the object if the object were not there. What is the object doing ? Is it sinking ? Then the buoyant force is less than the weight of the object. (A rock.) Is it rising ? Then the buoyant force is greater than the weight of the object. (A basketball forced to the bottom of the pool and then released.) Is it just hanging there ? (typically referred to as "floating") Then the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the object. (A boat.)

When a boat is partially immersed in water it displaces 600 kg of water. How much is the buoyant force acting on the boat in newton s?
We know that the force of buogant = Density volume . Accerlation of buoyant geqvity given Mass= 600kg. Therefore, force of buogant = mass.
How does the buoyant force on a boat change if the boat is loaded?
The heavier the boat is loaded, the deeper in the water the boat will float.

Why is it easier to pull a submerged boat anchor to the surface than it is to lift it onto the boat?
Because there is more buoyant force acting in it and because there's more pressure inside the water. When you lift it into the boat it is harder because the water is pulling it down.

Does air exert a buoyant force and Why does a boat floating in water not rise right up through the air?
A boat floats in water because it is less dense than water. It does not fly into the air because it is far denser than air. Air can sometimes exert a buoyant force, for example a full balloon of air placed in a bath of water will rise to the surface.
What is something buoyant?
Boat
Why does a leaking boat sink?
It sinks because the water it is displacing is going and the buoyant force is no longer greater so it sijnks
Does a sunken ship sitting on the ocean floor have a buoyant force on it?
yes, it is the equivalent to the weight of the water displaced by the solid material of the boat.
What is the magnitude of the buoyant force?
the simplest and the easiest method to find buoyant force is ................ just take a mug and dip it down to the bottom and now u will exert a vertically upward force this force is buoyant force. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When you have a body immersed in a liquid, the buoyant force the body will experience is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body which in place is equal to the volume of the body times the specific weight of the liquid. If the body floats on the surface of the liquid, the buoyant force equals the weight of the body and is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the body. That's why when it is said that a given ship "displaces 500 tons" it means the ship weights 500 tons which at the same time is the weight of sea water the ship's hull displaces (when in sea water).
How can aluminum float on water?
Shape the aluminum to look like a boat, so it displaces enough water to float. The force supporting the aluminum is the buoyant force. It is equal to the weight of the volume of water displaced.
