Is the weight of a block of concrete submerged under water and hung by a scale heavier or same as on land?

It is lighter by 64 pounds per cubic ft. of its volume


The upward buoyant force on a body immersed in a fluid is equal to what?

The upward buoyant force is simply equivalent to the weight of an amount of the fluid that would occupy the same space (same volume). The total upward force on the body, if freely floating, would be found by subtracting the downward force of the body's own weight. So for example, the buoyant force on a balloon filled with air submerged in water would be equal to the weight of the same-size balloon filled with water suspended in air.


What is the amount of mass per unit volume in an object mean?

The ratio mass/volume is called density.


How is an overflow can used in science?

An overflow can is used in science to measure the volume of an irregularly shaped object by determining the amount of liquid displaced when the object is submerged. When the object is placed in the can, the water level rises and spills out of the spout, allowing for precise measurement of the displaced volume. This technique is valuable in various fields, including physics and engineering, for calculating density and buoyancy. It provides a straightforward method for quantifying volume without direct measurement.


Who made a great discovery while having a bath?

The famous scientist Archimedes made a great discovery while taking a bath. He realized that the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object submerged, leading to his formulation of the principle of buoyancy. This moment of inspiration is often summarized by his exclamation "Eureka!" as he jumped out of the bath, excited about his newfound understanding.

What does a submerged object displace?

a submerged object displaces liquid which is equal to its volume


What is submerged density?

Submerged density is the density of an object when it is immersed in a fluid. It takes into account the volume of the object that is submerged in the fluid. This can be calculated using the formula: (density of object * volume of object) / (volume of object - volume of displaced fluid).


What does the amount of fluid displaced by a submerged object depened on?

The volume of the submerged object.


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

The upthrust, or buoyant force, acting on an object submerged in a liquid is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by the object. The volume of the body submerged in the liquid affects the upthrust because the greater the volume of the body submerged, the more liquid is displaced, resulting in a larger upthrust force.


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

The buoyant force on a submerged object depends on the volume of the object. It is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, which is determined by its volume. The weight of the object itself affects the net force experienced by the object when submerged.


What is the formula in Archimedes' principle?

Volume of liquid displaced = Volume of object submerged


How does the volume of completely submerged object compare with the volume of water displaced?

They are equal.


Is a body totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water less than its volume?

No, a body totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water equal to its own volume. This is known as Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by that object.


How do you use submerging method to calculate volume?

The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object submerged into the water


What can overflow measure when used to displace water?

Overflow can measure the volume of water displaced by an object when it is submerged. By measuring the overflow, one can determine the volume of the object, as it is equal to the volume of water it displaces.


The volume of a submerged object is equal to of the liquid displaced?

yes


A completely submerged object displaces it own?

volume of water, causing an equal volume of water to be pushed aside or displaced. This displacement of water creates a buoyant force that acts in the opposite direction to the force of gravity, helping to support the object in the water.
