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.


The blank force determines wether or not an object will float?

The correct answer is buoyant not put it in water


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.


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

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


What property of an object determines the strength of buoyant force that will be exerted on it when submerged in water?

Density - esp relative to water.


What determines the buoyant force?

It's the weight of the displaced fluid ... the amount of fluid that had to get out of the way when the object was dropped into the fluid.


What can you say about the buoyant force of an object floats in a fluid?

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


The buoyant force on an object is least when the object is?

The buoyant force is zero when the object is just touching the liquid. As the object displaces more volume, the buoyant force increases until the object is completely submerged. Once the object is submerged, it doesn't matter how deep it is, the buoyant force remains constant.


What determines an objects buoyant force?

Density


What can be assumed about the buoyant force on an object floating in water?

The buoyant force on a floating object is equal to the object's weight out of water.


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.


WHAT IS the relation between the Buoyant force and the weight of an object floating in a liquid?

When an object is floating in equilibrium, the buoyant force equals the weight of the object. (The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid)
